Haley’s favorability has cratered in the state while at the same time, voters have grown to like Trump even more.
Former UN ambassador Nikki Haley’s popularity has taken a hit in her home state of South Carolina, a worrying sign ahead of a critical primary race against former President Donald Trump, a new poll reported.
According to a -Monmouth University poll, Haley’s popularity has dropped 31 percentage points in just under five months. In comparison, Trump’s has risen eight points. Not surprisingly given those numbers, the latest Post-Monmouth poll released Thursday shows Trump with a 26-point lead among potential Republican primary voters.
The most recent poll fits with other recent surveys in the state.
