Nikki Haley’s breakout performance in the first Republican presidential-primary debate was not delivered into a void that responds only to Donald Trump’s dulcet tones. If the post-debate polling of GOP voters is any indication, a meaningful number of Republicans are giving her a real second look.
Haley received more encouraging news on Thursday. A CNN/SSRS poll testing how the Republican field performs in head-to-head matchups against Joe Biden in a general election found that, not only did the former South Carolina governor win more support than Biden, she was the only candidate to beat Biden convincingly — outside the poll’s margin of error.
