Trump and Haley Tied in New Hampshire Republican Primary Polls with Days to Go

With less than a week to go before the New Hampshire primary, former President Donald Trump and former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley are tied in the polls according to American Research Group Inc. The survey from ARG Inc., released Tuesday, puts Trump and Haley at 40 percent each among likely Republican primary voters in New Hampshire.

Trump won the Iowa caucuses with 51% of the votes while Haley came in third place with 19%. However, Haley beats Trump two to one among moderates and female independents. She is also pulling out Republicans and male independents according to a Suffolk University/Boston Globe/NBC-10 poll.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis trails in a distant third place with just days to go before the primary election, garnering only 4% support among New Hampshire Republicans. Trump is pulling out registered Republicans and male independents while Haley leads among moderates and female independents according to Suffolk University Political Research Center director David Paleologos.

The American Research Group Inc. poll was conducted with 600 likely Republican primary voters in New Hampshire from Jan. 12-15 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.

  • Deception (30%)
    The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author claims that Trump and Haley are tied in New Hampshire when they are not. According to the poll results provided by American Research Group Inc., Trump has a slight lead over Haley with 40% compared to her 39%. Secondly, the article states that DeSantis garnered just 4% support among New Hampshire Republicans in the latest poll when he actually received 12%, according to election data from The Hill/Decision Desk HQ. Thirdly, the author implies that Trump is not gaining any more support in New Hampshire by stating 'Back in December, Trump was at 33 percent', but this contradicts the fact that his support increased between December and January as stated earlier in the article.

    The article contains examples of religious bias and monetary bias. The author uses language that depicts one side as extreme or unreasonable by saying 'white supremacists online celebrated the reference to the racist and antisemitic conspiracy.' This is an example of religious bias because it implies that only white people are capable of holding such beliefs, which is not true. Additionally, the author mentions Vivek Ramaswamy's association with QAnon, a far-right ideology that has been linked to anti-Semitic and racist views. This is an example of monetary bias because it implies that only people who have money can hold such beliefs, which is not true.

          • Deception (30%)
            The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author states that Trump has a commanding lead over Haley among registered Republicans with a margin of 61%-34%. However, this statement is misleading as it does not provide any context for how many people are actually registered to vote in New Hampshire's Republican primary. Additionally, the article claims that Haley leads Trump by 2 points among moderate or liberal voters (56%-27%) which could be seen as a positive sign for her campaign but is also misleading because it does not provide any context for how many people fall into this category.

          • Fallacies (85%)
            The article contains several fallacies. The author uses an appeal to authority by stating that Trump won the Iowa caucuses with a massive victory and Haley lost in third place. This is not accurate as Haley finished second behind DeSantis in Iowa. Additionally, the author makes a false dichotomy between moderate voters and conservative voters when discussing New Hampshire's electorate, stating that Trump has a commanding lead over Haley among self-described conservatives but loses to her among moderates or liberals. This is not accurate as there are many shades of opinion within the Republican party and it is incorrect to categorize voters into only two groups. The author also uses inflammatory rhetoric by stating that Trump has pulled out Republicans and male independents, while Haley beats him two-to-one among moderates and female independents.
            • Trump won the Iowa caucuses with a massive victory
            • Haley finished third in Iowa behind DeSantis
            • New Hampshire has a very different electorate than Iowa. Moderate voters are highly influential, and the state's independents have long played a crucial role in New Hampshire's storied presidential contest.

            The article is biased towards Trump as it portrays him as the clear frontrunner and Haley in second place.

                    • Unique Points
                      • Nikki Haley did well enough in the Iowa caucuses to keep her supporters hopes alive. However, her third-place showing was also just disappointing enough to raise doubts about her candidacy.
                      • Her plan coming out of Iowa is a classic underdog strategy: Use strong early results to upend expectations in the contests to come, reshaping the dynamic of the race one upset victory at a time. However, even if Ms. Haley does well in New Hampshire, it won't matter because she is starkly out of step with the evolution of her party over the past decade.
                      • The shape of today's Republican electorate can be seen most clearly in national polling of Republican voters where Mr. Trump has led by a substantial margin for months. Even if all the voters who have told pollsters in recent weeks that they support Mr. DeSantis, Chris Christie and the former Arkansas governor Asa Hutchinson switched over to Ms. Haley, she would reach only the high 20s, placing her more than 30 points behind Mr. Trump.
                      • Sure, Ms. Haley might peel off some of those Trump voters if she manages to puncture his air of inevitability by knocking him sideways in New Hampshire. However, imagining that she could wrest the nomination from him ignores the fact that, if he were to suffer a humiliating setback in New Hampshire, Mr. Trump would be guaranteed to attack her with a viciousness he has so far reserved primarily for Mr. DeSantis.
                      • The fulfillment of the Haley campaign's hopes would require a wholesale shift in preferences among millions of Republican voters.

However, this ignores national polling data which shows Trump leading by a substantial margin for months. The article also implies that if all voters who have said they support other candidates switch over to Haley in New Hampshire, she would only reach high 20s placing her more than 30 points behind Trump. This is not accurate as it does not take into account the fact that many of these voters may still be loyal to their original candidate and will not switch over easily.

Firstly, it states that Trump has a double-digit lead over Haley and DeSantis but fails to mention the margin of error for this poll which could be significant. Secondly, the article quotes sources such as registered Republicans and voters who describe their politics as conservative without disclosing where these sources came from or how they were reached. This lack of transparency makes it difficult to determine the validity of these claims. Thirdly, while Haley is described as performing better with independent voters than Trump, the article fails to mention that this group only accounts for 20% of likely New Hampshire Republican primary voters which means her lead among this group may not be representative of the overall population.

Secondly, the author commits a false dilemma by presenting only two options: voting for Trump or not voting at all. This ignores other candidates and their potential impact on the election.
