Nikki Haley may not have 'a way' to catch Donald Trump

Former White House deputy chief of staff Emma Doyle says the rurality of Donald Trump’s supporters in Iowa may cut into his lead and “damage momentum” ahead of the caucuses. “Based on the polling I’ve seen, I don’t think there is a way for Haley to catch him,” Ms Doyle told Sky News Australia. “Although, a strong showing coming in second would certainly benefit her going into the next primary in New Hampshire. “Iowa isn’t really about the number of delegates to win the nomination; it’s really about showing that a candidate is viable and has enough support to keep going and maintain a campaign to the next couple of primaries.” The mid-western state of Iowa will today become the first in the United States to cast a ballot, to decide the Republican nominee for President this coming November.
