Former President Trump and President Biden have been actively engaging in their respective primaries, with a focus on the upcoming general election. This week, both politicians made visits to the southern border, a key issue for voters.
Super Tuesday, with 874 delegates up for grabs, has drawn attention as a crucial point in the primaries. A recent New York Times Siena poll has indicated potential challenges for President Biden, showing Trump leading by five points among registered voters and winning Hispanic voters by six percent.
As of the latest delegate count, Trump has secured 140 delegates, while Nikki Haley has 24. Both candidates are actively campaigning, with Haley dismissing rumors of a potential third-party run and emphasizing her commitment to staying competitive in the race.
Trump, fresh from his visit to the southern border, is rallying supporters in North Carolina, aiming for a strong showing on Super Tuesday to solidify his position in the primaries. The focus for both candidates seems to be shifting towards the general election, with Trump looking to consolidate support to face off against Biden.
The New York Times Siena poll also highlights Haley's strong performance, showing her leading Biden by 10 points overall and winning Hispanic voters by 12 points. With key endorsements from Senators Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski, Haley's campaign is gaining momentum as she gears up for the upcoming primaries.
