TL;DR Summary

New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu has publicly called for Chris Christie to withdraw from the Republican presidential primary to consolidate support behind Sununu's preferred candidate, Nikki Haley. Sununu's endorsement of Haley comes as she is trailing Donald Trump in New Hampshire polls. Christie's campaign has rejected the call to drop out, emphasizing the importance of truth-telling in the race. Meanwhile, Haley has been trying to recover from a recent gaffe about the Civil War and is focusing on gaining support in early primary states. Sununu also criticized the Maine secretary of state's decision to remove Trump from the state's primary ballot, suggesting it was politically motivated.
