Nikki Haley’s Voters Size Up a Scrambled Race

New York Times: “Many of Ms. Haley’s most ardent supporters in her losing bid — moderate, college-educated Republicans and independents skeptical of Mr. Trump — fell into what pollsters called the “double haters” camp: people dreading having to cast a ballot for Mr. Trump or President Biden, before he ended his re-election campaign. Vice President Kamala Harris’s acceptance of the Democratic nomination last month has changed the math.”

Said GOP pollster Whit Ayres: “Neither one of these candidates is exactly a perfect fit for those voters. The Haley voters, I think, are examining the Harris candidacy, and they are going to decide where they fall eventually.”
