Republican presidential candidates, campaigns clear out of Iowa for New Hampshire primary

Republican presidential candidates, campaigns clear out of Iowa for New Hampshire primary
IN NEW HAMPSHIRE OVERNIGHT. NICOLE. SCOTT, GOOD MORNING. YES, SUPPORTERS, MEDIA CANDIDATES, EVERYONE HAS ALREADY MOVED ON TO NEW HAMPSHIRE, BUT IT’S REALLY INTERESTING BECAUSE FOR MONTHS, ALL THE ATTENTION WAS ON IOWA. WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN WITH THE IOWA CAUCUS HERE AT THE DES MOINES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT? THERE ARE SIGNS WELCOMING IN PEOPLE FOR THE IOWA CAUCUS AROUND THE DES MOINES METRO. ALSO, SIMILAR MESSAGES AROUND. BUT YEAH, JUST LIKE THAT, IT’S NOW ON TO NEW HAMPSHIRE. IN FACT, AT MIDNIGHT, WE SAW DONALD TRUMP’S PLANE LEAVING THE DES MOINES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT ABOUT AN HOUR BEFORE THAT, WE SAW A MOTORCADE OF DES MOINES POLICE AND IOWA STATE PATROL ESCORTING THE FORMER PRESIDENT. MANY OF THESE PRESIDENTIAL HOPEFULS, THEIR CAMPAIGNS AND JOURNALISTS, WILL BE TOUCHING DOWN ON THE EAST COAST THIS MORNING IN PREPARATION FOR NEXT TUESDAY’S PRIMARY IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. IN FACT, TRUMP, NIKKI HALEY AND RON DESANTIS ALL HAVE EVENTS SCHEDULED THERE TODAY. BUT SOMETHING TO WATCH FOR IN THATRILLIONACE IS WHETHER OR NOT HALEY WILL PERFORM BETTER COMPARED TO IOWA. THAT’S BECAUSE NEW HAMPSHIRE GOVERNOR CHRIS SUNUNU HAS BEEN SUPPORTING HER, AND HE’S ALSO BEEN CAMPAIGNING ON HER BEHALF. WELL, IT’S UNUSUAL FOR FOR A CANDIDATE TO FINISH THIRD AND THEN SAY IT’S A TWO PERSON RACE, BUT IT REALLY DOES COME DOWN TO THAT. UH, THE GOVERNOR, UH, DESANTIS DOESN’T HAVE THE ORGANIZATION IN PLACE THAT, UH, AMBASSADOR HALEY DOES IN NOT ONLY NEW HAMPSHIRE, WHERE SHE’S VERY STRONG, BUT ALSO SOUTH CAROLINA AND ON. WE’LL BE WATCHING FOR HOW THAT PRIMARY UNFOLDS. BUT HERE AT THE AIRPORTS, BEEN A BUSY MORNING AND ACTUALLY THE WEATHER HERE HAS BEEN AN ISSUE AS WELL, BECAUSE WE’RE TAKING A LOOK AT THE DEPARTURES BOARD. THERE’S BEEN A COUPLE OF CANCELED FLIGHTS AND DELAYS AS WELL TO THE EAST COAST. A FLIGHT TO ATLANTA AND DC INVOLVED. SO A LOT OF THESE FOLKS TRYING TO HEAD BACK TO THE EAST COAST, MAYBE RUNNING INTO SOME TROUBLE. WE DID ASK THE TSA HERE AT THE DES MOINES AIRPORT THIS MORNING WHETHER OR NOT THEY’RE GOING TO ADD STAFFING BECAUSE OF MORE FOLKS, BUT THEY SAY THEY’RE NOT ANTICIPATING ADDITIONAL PEOPLE TRAVELING THIS MORNING. BUT IT’S STILL A GOOD IDEA TO COME TO THE AIRPORT AT LEAST TWO HOURS BEFORE YOUR FLIGHT. LIVE AT THE DES MOINES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT.
