Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) is offering his supporters tickets to the New Hampshire GOP debate scheduled for later this month.
“As a special ‘thank you,’ I’m giving our supporters a chance to attend the New Hampshire GOP debate as my guest,” DeSantis wrote in a post on X, formerly Twitter. “Add your name, and you and a plus-one will have a chance to get flown-in for the debate and a meet and greet!”
DeSantis’s campaign is offering people a chance to attend the debate if they add their name and email to a list. If they are selected, the campaign will give them two tickets to the debate, provide transportation and lodging and an opportunity to meet DeSantis and his family, according to the website.
The New Hampshire CNN debate will be on Jan. 21 — just two days before the state’s primary on Jan. 23. DeSantis is trailing at a distant third place in the polls in the state as former U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley continues to rise.
An Emerson College Polling/WHDH poll released Thursday found that former President Trump maintains a comfortable lead in New Hampshire with 44 percent of support among Republican primary voters in the state. The former president was followed by Haley who clinched 28 percent in the poll and DeSantis, who garnered just 7 percent of support.
Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R), who spent most of his time campaigning in the Granite State, suspended his bid for the White House on Wednesday.
