Quote:That said, only 14% of the electric showed up to caucus. That leaves 86% that didn't bother to show up. Thats the real story. Who will that 86% vote for in the general?

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.

Quote:Donald Trump won half the Caucus vote against DeSantis, Haley, Vivek Ramaswamy, and some other random names. He carried 98 of Iowa’s 99 counties, and led in urban, suburban, and rural areas. According to entrance polls, he trounced DeSantis among self-described “very conservative” voters by a 60 percent to 28 percent margin, and beat the Floridian among evangelical voters by a 51 percent to 29 percent margin. But Trump also beat Haley among college-educated voters and independents. He carried every age category. Trump showed no real weaknesses. His roughly 30-point margin of victory was well over double the all-time record in contested Iowa Republican Caucus history, even though he may have suffered from turnout lowered by brutally cold weather and the lack of doubt about who was going to finish first (as opposed to second and third, which was indeed a close competition as predicted). He was outspent by both Team Haley ($37 million) and Team DeSantis ($35 million) in Iowa campaign advertising (Trump and his allies spent $18 million). None of it really mattered.

Quote:A number of states allow only unaffiliated voters to participate in any party primary they choose, but do not allow voters who are registered with one party to vote in another party’s primary. This system differs from a true open primary because a Democrat cannot cross over and vote in a Republican party primary, or vice versa. New Hampshire requires that unaffiliated voters declare affiliation with a party at the polls in order to vote in that party’s primary. In Colorado, unaffiliated voters must return just one party’s mail ballot, or state which party ballot they want at the polls. The choice is public information, although it does not change the voter's unaffiliated status.

Quote:Originally posted by 6ixStringJack: I really don't know what this SNL appearance was about. The only people who vote for Haley in the primaries are Democrats, sure... But they're never going to vote for her in the General, and there's never going to be enough Democrats voting in any state primaries to put her above Trump. Truly a strange event.
Quote:Who thought this was a good idea? She won’t get a bump from this because this isn’t 1968, she's not Nixon, and Laugh-In is no longer on the air. Richard Nixon credits his appearance on the famed sketch comedy show as one of the reasons why he won the 1968 election. Does Haley think she can bounce back from a surprise SNL cameo? Or does she know she’s about to get thrashed again and doesn’t care? If she's about to be pummeled, she might as well go out having fun. Based on her Iowa and New Hampshire speeches, you could argue that she feels this could help humanize her more with voters. And given that her strategy is now centered on appealing to left-leaning voters, SNL would be the optimal show for a guest cold opening. But we all know what’s coming: the woman is bound to be obliterated in Nevada and South Carolina. I don’t even need to go into Super Tuesday. One would hope that someone in her inner circle is trying to bring this woman back to reality by strongly advising her to drop out before the Palmetto State showdown, where Trump is going to eviscerate her by at least 25 points. Haley isn’t the captain of the Titanic. She sees the iceberg and has time to change course. She can drop out now and leave this race with some dignity.

Quote:LAS VEGAS, Nevada — Former United States Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley lost the Republican first-in-the-West Nevada primary to the “none of these candidates” option, an embarrassing display as she seeks to win the GOP presidential over former President Donald Trump. With 86% of the ballots tallied, “none of these candidates” had 63% of the vote, while Haley had 31%, and former Vice President Mike Pence, who dropped out of the race last year, netted 4% of the vote. The Associated Press called the race shortly after midnight EST, two hours after the polls closed. Haley became the first presidential candidate to lose a race to “none of these candidates” since the protest option became a requirement in 1975 under Nevada law for primary elections for president and statewide offices.

Quote:In a race with no opponents, and in a contest with no convention delegates at stake, Nikki Haley, the lone surviving challenger to Donald Trump in the Republican nominating process, lost Tuesday’s Nevada primary in a landslide. As explained in an earlier column, a couple years back Nevada’s state legislature mandated that primaries be held in the presidential nominating process. The GOP responded by announcing it would hold a caucus as well, setting ground rules that candidates could enter one or the other contest, but not both—though voters could vote in both contests—and that only the caucus results would count for accruing delegates. Trump, of course, promptly chose to enter the caucus, a format that he thrives in; Haley opted to go forego the delegates and went for the hoped-for headlines of a big symbolic win in the primaries. It didn’t work. On Tuesday, she secured less than one third of the primary vote, with almost all of the rest of the vote going for “None of these candidates.” The headlines weren’t exactly adulatory toward Haley. Two days later, Trump easily won the caucus.

Quote:Haley and allies increasingly targeted independent and Democratic-leaning voters in the final days of the election, with any voter who did not vote in the Feb. 3 Democratic presidential primary here eligible to vote in Saturday’s contest. Turnout in the Democratic primary was just 130,000, a massive drop-off from recent election cycles.

Quote:Despite the losses, Haley has beat expectations set by polls in several of the early voting states. She won more than 43% of the vote in New Hampshire and nearly 40% in her home state of South Carolina, both states where she spent significant time campaigning.
Quote:“There are huge numbers of voters in our Republican primaries who are saying they want an alternative,” Haley said last week.
