AllSides Media Bias Rating: Center
Former Governor Nikki Haley began rising in July and is now third in the average of national polls.
In her home state of South Carolina, Haley has been holding a lead over DeSantis for the number two slot since September.
If Haley’s invisible primary momentum increases in the next eight weeks and she has an unexpectedly strong showing in Iowa, it could propel her into a close second with Trump in New Hampshire.
