While that may be true, DeSantis did serve the function of diluting the Hillary Haley vote, making Trump’s victory margins more impressive. So, there’s that.

So Haley was the second choice for the majority of DeSantis voters?

We have a fairly good idea on the numbers on that based on “what if” polling questions in a few states.

It looks like DeSantis voters will split 50-50 between President Trump and Nikita if DeSantis is out of the race.

From what I've seen on Twitter, where there are a lot of DeSantis voices to listen to, many of them consider themselves "formerTrumpers" (not "neverTrumpers") and therefore despise Haley, and would never vote for her. The rest of them, maybe even as many as half, have the vaccines and gain of function as their primary issue, and are planning to vote for RFK Jr if Trump is the Republican nominee. They don't see a lot of difference between them on the other leading issue, but also because they don't think Trump can win, anyway.
