Mr. Sununu is popular in the state, though former President Donald J. Trump continues to dominate the field.

It's a gift article, so everyone should be able to read it.

The endorsement is a significant victory for Ms. Haley, who is trying to establish herself over Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida as the main alternative to Mr. Trump and has gained ground in New Hampshire polling in the past month.

Mr. Sununu, a Trump critic who is serving his fourth and last two-year term as governor, was re-elected last year by more than 15 percentage points and is popular in the state. He was seen as a top recruit for the Senate last year but declined to run, and he also chose not to run for the Republican presidential nomination himself — saying at the time that he thought he could have more influence as an external voice than as a candidate.

While she is still trailing the GOP's orange overlord by a significant amount, this is a nice endorsment for her to get under her belt.

Thoughts? What are the odds she will get the nomination from Trump? She would obviously be an improvement over Trump, but that is not saying much as her politics are still quite regressive.

Zero chance she gets the nomination over Trump.

Not zero. Trump could after all drop dead of a heart attack, you never know.

Lol if Trump dies of natural causes before the next election then there are going to be a million conspiracy theories.

Still though, with all his dictator talk lately I’ve found myself rooting for team #cholesterol.
