New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu joins Nikki Haley on the campaign trail in Iowa

DES MOINES, Iowa (KCCI) -New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu joined Nikki Haley at two campaign stops in Des Moines Friday, KCCI’s Amanda Rooker reported. Sununu endorsed Haley in December.
Sununu told a crowd in New Hampshire on Wednesday that Haley will “shock everyone in Iowa with a strong second,” according to The Washington Post.
When asked about those comments during a campaign stop in Iowa Friday, Sununu answered that Haley finishing second on caucus night “would be great” but said he did not “want to set any expectations.”
“We’re all hopeful. We all want our candidates to do as best as they possibly can,” Sununu continued. “We don’t want to set any unrealistic expectations. I think she can do it. I think it’s possible.”
On January 15th, Iowa Republicans will meet to decide their preferred candidate for president, following the tradition of small local gatherings where neighbors and strangers can stand up to show their support for a particular candidate and persuade others to join them.
Sununu also said both New Hampshire and Iowa are “very good at delivering surprises.”
“Who knows what’s actually going to happen here? It’s the Iowa caucus. That’s the amazing part about it. It’s all about who comes out to vote,” Sununu said.

Man charged in deadly crash that killed Endicott police sergeant extradited to N.H.
The man accused in a deadly crash that killed an Endicott police sergeant was arrested and extradited to New Hampshire on Friday.
According to New Hampshire State Police, officers obtained an extraditable arrest warrant in December and charged Keoma Duarte, 40 of New Bedford with two felony counts of reckless conduct and one misdemeanor count of disobeying an officer.
Prosecutors say Keoma Duarte was so drunk the night before Thanksgiving that officers could smell the alcohol on him as they worked to free him from his crumpled Tesla on Interstate 95 near Newbury.
Duarte’s Tesla had slammed head-on into a car that Endicott College Police Sgt. Jeremy Cole was driving, killing the 49-year-old husband and father of four as he drove home from work.
Duarte, 40, was arraigned on vehicular homicide and manslaughter charges from his hospital bed in December. He spoke only once, acknowledging he could hear the judge.
On June 3rd, NH troopers traveled to Bristol County Jail and House of Correction in Massachusetts and took Duarte into custody.
Duarte was then transported back to New Hampshire, where he was held at the Rockingham County Department of Corrections ahead of arraignment on Wednesday, June 4, 2025, in Hampton District Court.
Jeremy Cole was a police sergeant at Endicott College. News of his death shook the close-knit community of students and staff.
The crash remains under investigation.
