With three days to go until New Hampshire’s Republican presidential primary, a new poll indicates former President Trump<\/a> remains the commanding frontrunner, with former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley behind by double-digits, and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis a distant third.<\/p>\n

Trump, who is running a third straight time for the White House, grabs 53% support among those likely to vote in Tuesday’s New Hampshire<\/a> GOP presidential primary, according to a daily tracking poll released Saturday morning by Suffolk University, the Boston Globe and NBC10 in Boston.<\/p>\n

HALEY TURNS UP THE HEAT ON TRUMP AS SHE TRIES TO CLOSE THE GAP IN THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The former president’s support edged up one point from Friday\u2019s tracking poll.<\/p>\n

Haley, who served as ambassador to the United Nations during the Trump administration, stands at 36%, with her support edging up a point from Friday\u2019s survey.<\/p>\n

DeSantis, once the clear runner-up to Trump in most polling, pulled in 7% support, up one point over the past 24 hours.<\/p>\n

The poll was conducted Thursday and Friday evenings, entirely after Trump scored a massive victory in Monday night’s Iowa caucuses, the first contest on the GOP presidential nominating<\/a> calendar.<\/p>\n

A poll from Saint Anselm College that was also conducted after the Iowa caucuses also indicates Trump with a lead in the mid-teens over Haley and DeSantis in single digits in New Hampshire.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, a new survey released Friday from Marist College indicates Haley performing better<\/a> against President Biden than either Trump or DeSantis in hypothetical general election matchups in November in New Hampshire, which is a key battleground state.<\/p>\n

The survey indicates Haley edging Biden by three points, while the president tops Trump by seven points and DeSantis by nine points<\/a>. Haley repeatedly emphasized on the campaign trail that she would perform better against Biden in the general election than Trump would fare against the president.<\/p>\n
