New Hampshire: Primary Election Today: At one point it appeared that former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley was well positioned against Donald Trump in the New Hampshire primary, but a plethora of late polls find the former President expanding his advantage well into double digits.
Also on the ballot tonight is the Democratic presidential primary, though sans President Joe Biden. He is bypassing this event because the state refused to accept the Democratic National Committee recommended primary schedule change that would have deprived New Hampshire of its cherished first-in-the-nation primary status. Ten polls have been released since Saturday from as many different pollsters, and except for the American Research Group, all show Mr. Trump holding leads between ten and a whopping 27 percentage points. The ARG survey finds Mr. Trump holding only a 33-29% edge. The Democratic race is much more difficult to forecast because of the write-in campaign underway for the President. The three polls, from the American Research Group, the University of New Hampshire for CNN, and Emerson College for WHDH-TV in Boston, see the Phillips support line falling between 10 and 18 percentage points. With data showing the respective party leaders expanding their leads, it will be an even bigger upset tonight if either President Biden or Mr. Trump fail to meet their enhanced expectations.
