“Well, I’d like to see Ron DeSantis versus Nikki Haley,” Ingraham said while hosting her show The Ingraham Angle Tuesday night. “The two of them, I think, need to debate it out. That’s what we need to see at this point. And I think America would like to see that, as well. And we’re offering The Angle to do that.”
Haley’s poll numbers and fundraising figures have increased in the wake of the first three primary debates to the point where she is rivaling Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) for second place in some statewide polls. An Emerson College poll of New Hampshire voters released Thursday showed Haley surging to second place at 18%, behind former President Donald Trump at 49% and ahead of DeSantis at 7%.
