DeSantis 'on life support' in N.H., plummets in new poll (Politico) [View all]
Ron DeSantis is in freefall in New Hampshire.
The Florida GOP governor, who once polled ahead of former President Donald Trump in the first primary state, has now fallen solidly back into the pack, competing in a crowded race with biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley and former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie for second place in a new survey.
Support for DeSantis cratered to 10 percent in the CNN/University of New Hampshire poll released Wednesday, his worst showing in a public poll of Granite Staters yet, according to the list compiled by polling aggregator Real Clear Politics. He’s down 32 points from the January UNH survey in which he led Trump 42 percent to 30 percent. He now sits 29 points behind the former president.
“The campaign for Ron DeSantis is on life support,” veteran New Hampshire GOP strategist Mike Dennehy said in response to the poll. “He has one shot at resuscitation and that is the debate next week.”
DeSantis finished fifth in the survey, behind Ramaswamy at 13 percent, Haley at 12 percent and Christie at 11 percent. But because of the poll’s margin of error, the candidates are statistically in a four-way tie for second.

Please pardon me if this is considered a "right-wing source", but it is only about a poll, so I will 'take a pass' here...
Regarding DeSantis---- perhaps he needs to wipe snot on more voters?
Or eat pudding with more fingers ???
LMAO
even if he were to manage to score big in the more 'evangelical' state of Iowa,
his New Hampshire results are likely to shut him down...
