Brand new CNN polls breaking right now in the 2024 race has the Republican contest changed at all

since Donald Trump swept Iowa and New Hampshire and which GOP candidate fares

better in a head-to-head match up against President Biden. The results in just

November election about artificial intelligence or AI see how AI may have changed the

outcome of another country's presidential race.

Plus, what are voters biggest concerns right now in the midst of the Republican primaries?

CNN's political director David Ch Chalion is standing by with

the brand new results and Governor Haley herself is here to react to the new polls.
