Update: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis will finish a distant second place in the Iowa caucuses, networks projected late Monday night.
Former Un Ambassador Nikki Haley had hopes of a No. 2 finish as she eyed pulling off a surprise next week in New Hampshire.
Speaking with supporters, DeSantis said tonight’ results showed that he “got a ticket punched out of the Hawkeye state.”
“The media was against us. They were writing our obituary months ago. They even called the election before people even got a chance to vote,” DeSantis told supporters, referring to the networks’ early call of the caucuses for Donald Trump.
Despite her third place finish, Haley told supporters that “the pundits will analyze the results from every angle. We get that. But when you look at how we are doing in New Hampshire, in South Carolina, and beyond, I can safely say tonight Iowa made this Republican primary a two-person race.
