Republican primary: Nikki Haley closes gap with Trump in New Hampshire

According to an exclusive USA TODAY/Boston Globe/Suffolk University poll, Trump is leading in New Hampshire with 46%, followed by Haley at 26%. Other contenders include former New Jersey governor Chris Christie at 12%, and Florida governor Ron DeSantis (8%) and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy (2%). Trump's current 20-percentage-point lead over Haley is substantial, yet it represents a decrease from a 30-point lead in a previous poll conducted in October. This change suggests a growing momentum for Haley in the crucial early stages of the Republican primary race.
