Nikki Haley’s campaign says they’ve received an over 200% increase in email traffic from supporters asking the candidate to stay in the race following former president Donald Trump’s primary victory in New Hampshire.
@Gabrielle this link looks like information but has no information value. Assuming it's literally true even, "we got some emails" isn't a robust indicator of anything. Since she hadn't lost anything yet until 2 weeks ago, this 200% jump could be from 1 dozen emails to 3 dozen. Plus if emails saying "don't drop out" did indicate anything, it would be that she looks likely to drop out.
