Republican Contest in New Hampshire

 I thought that the republican primary contest in New Hampshire was very interesting.  It has been the first real test for the nominees in terms of their overall popularity with the people.  A lot of people were wondering if the majority of New Hampshire voters would break for Hailey over Trump based on the political makeup of the state.  Given that, in New Hampshire, it is estimated that 40% of the voting population are registered as independent voters.  There is also the fact that New Hampshire has an open primary where anyone can vote in any primary contest for the presidential candidacy of any political party.  This could have very well affected the outcome of the New Hampshire primaries.  Odds are that there were significant numbers of democrats in the primary polls who voted for Nikki Hailey in an effort to damage Trump's chances at the presidency.  Regardless of this fact, Trump still won the primaries overall by a relatively large margin. 

This likely means that a large portion of the "independent" voters, chose to vote for Trump in the republican primaries, suggesting that many of the independents are unhappy with the current democratic constituency - including Joe Biden and his governing policies and practices.  Although, New Hampshire is just a small portion of the American voting population, it is a relatively good indicator of how many of the independents may be feeling overall about the democratic party as a whole. 

If this does end up being the case, then I would tend to believe that it is a good indicator of his chances of becoming the republican nominee and beating Joe Biden in the next presidential elections.  As of right now, the republican primary is still active.  Something could still feasibly happen to upset Trump's current lead over Hailey.  However, after carefully looking at several sources across the web, I really think that this won't happen.  All things seem to point to another race between Trump and Biden.  

I do not necessarily like the concept of a rematch between the two presidents, but that is where we are headed as of today. Therefore, the country will be faced with a critical choice.  To continue with how things are and have been over the past 4 years, or to return to how things have been during Trump's presidency.  This makes the decision rather simple in my opinion, considering that for both candidates, we can simply look at their past actions as president and make the appropriate decision for what we want for the future.  As things stand, I choose Trump over Biden, and would so any day of the week.
