SALEM, New Hampshire — Jim Merrill, a respected, seasoned pro in New Hampshire Republican politics, said when he walked into the Salem-Derry Elks Club in the early days of the presidential campaign this spring, he was impressed with the number of people Nikki Haley, the former ambassador to the United Nations and South Carolina governor, drew to her event.
Merrill said the best way to explain how voters are reacting to her was how she comes across as well grounded. Gov. Ron DeSantis , who spends the bulk of his time in Iowa, has seen his support here decline by 18 points since March and now trails Haley with 11% support. In an interview with the Washington Examiner, Haley said she has been consistent with her message and believes it is striking the right tone with voters.
Haley explained that her husband Michael got in the driver's seat, she got in the passenger seat, they put their two little ones in the back seat, and she started knocking on doors. “He's just always been home base for me. When I'm going through something it's always good to talk with him about things,” she said, adding, “He's also one that kind of keeps me levelheaded. He makes sure that I don't take something too far, or he makes sure that I stay true to who I am, and he keeps me grounded.”
