The DeSantis campaign is shrugging off Nikki Haley’s major endorsement from New Hampshire governor Chris Sununu, claiming it will be of little importance if the Florida governor has a strong showing in Iowa.

“What happens in New Hampshire will be significantly impacted by the outcome in Iowa, where the true Trump alternative will emerge,” DeSantis campaign spokesman Andrew Romeo said in response to the news. “And when Ron DeSantis comes out in that position he will be joined by over 60 New Hampshire state legislators who stand ready to take the fight to the establishment and their candidates of yesteryear to return power to grassroots conservatives.”
