The 2024 presidential election looks like it will be a rematch of the 2020 election based on the results of the primaries so far.

On Jan. 15, 2024, the Iowa Caucus took place, and the clear winner was former president Donald Trump with 51% of the votes. In second place was Ron DeSantis with 21.2%, and in third was Nikki Haley with 19.1%.

On Jan. 21, DeSantis announced on X, formerly Twitter, that he was dropping out of the race, and endorsed Trump. DeSantis used the quote, “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that count.”

DeSantis attributed the quote to Winston Churchill, but it was not actually said by him, according to the International Churchill Society. Churchill is credited with being the author of the quote “no one can guarantee success in war, but only deserve it,” and “Success always demands a greater effort. According to the International Churchill Society, these two quotes get merged to create a false quote. This is known as “Churchillian drift,” according to the Washington Post, which “describes someone erroneously citing the former British Prime Minister to add intellectual weight to what they were saying.”

The quote’s original author is unknown.

While there will not be an official nomination until closer to the official election, signs seem pretty clear that Trump will be the nominee again.

On Jan. 24, the New Hampshire primary took place to help determine who has the best chance to win the general election.

Trump won New Hampshire with 54.3% of the vote at 174,948 votes; Nikki Haley was second with 43.3% of the vote at 139,469 votes.

Though Haley is not winning the race, a junior who wanted to remain anonymous reported that they believe “She [Haley] may be losing steam,” but also reflected that “I believe that this is a very respectable decision [to stay in the race] as she could be the new face of the country being the strong candidate that she is.”

Haley’s prospects seem to be fading, especially after the Nevada primary, where she lost to the ballot option “none of these candidates.” CBS News reports that this occurred due to a “coordinated effort by Trump supporters to prevent Haley from claiming victory.”

With the South Carolina primary on Feb. 24, the race for the nomination is continuing. Expectations for Haley are high due to the fact she was Governor in this state from 2011 to 2017.
