Oddsmakers had former U.S. President Donald Trump as the "lock" to win the New Hampshire primary at -10000. He is a -125 favorite to win by more than a 20 point margin against former UN Ambassador Nikki Hailey.
New Hampshire has a more moderate political tradition and primary rules that allow unaffiliated voters to participate in the race. Trump-backed MAGA candidates have struggled here in recent years. This has many believing Haley can win the NH Primary.
Former New Jersey Govenor Chris Christie dropping out of the race would likely help Haley in New Hampshire. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis dropping out likely won't help.
“DeSantis dropping out virtually eliminates any chance Haley has at keeping Trump under 50 percent,” said Mike Dennehy, a longtime New Hampshire GOP strategist who worked on John McCain’s 2000 and 2008 presidential campaigns. “There’s a chance now that Trump could get 60 percent of the vote in New Hampshire.”
Haley must win in New Hampshire Tuesday.
"If Trump wins the first two states, it's hard to see how he's not the nominee," said Alex Conant, a veteran Republican operative. "I'm sure Haley will claim success if she is a very close second, but where does she go from there?"
