"Super Tuesday Polls Close with Biden and Trump Expected Victories"

Super Tuesday primaries are underway in 16 states and one territory, with President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump winning their respective primaries in North Carolina. Exit polls show a significant portion of GOP primary voters in North Carolina and Virginia would consider Trump fit for the presidency if convicted of a crime, and a majority of North Carolina GOP voters baselessly deny the legitimacy of Biden's 2020 election win. Nikki Haley's Republican presidential campaign is focused on Super Tuesday, while Biden remains undefeated with wins in North Carolina, Virginia, and Iowa.

"Trump Rallies in Iowa, Alleges Caucus Rigging Amidst Calls for Retribution"

Former President Donald Trump is campaigning in Iowa with a strong lead ahead of the Republican caucuses, urging supporters to vote despite his lead in the polls. Trump continues to make false claims about the 2020 election being stolen and attacks his political rivals, particularly Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis, while also criticizing President Joe Biden. Trump's legal challenges, including criminal charges and efforts to disqualify him from the ballot, have not dampened the support of his base. His campaign aims for a decisive victory in Iowa to set the stage for a quick nomination and a potential rematch against Biden in the general election.

Nikki Haley Gains Ground and Controversy in Early Primaries Amidst Rivalry and Backlash

In the New Hampshire Republican presidential primary, Nikki Haley is closely trailing Donald Trump, with a new poll showing only a 4-point difference, largely due to her support from independent voters. While Trump leads among registered Republicans, Haley has the edge among undeclared voters who can participate in either party's primary. The outcome may hinge on the independent turnout, and the race appears to be tightening according to the RealClearPolitics average. This development comes as New Hampshire prepares for its primary, which will occur shortly after the Iowa caucuses.
