• Frank Kummer of The Philadelphia Inquirer writes: “New Jersey officials, stung last year when a major offshore wind developer backed out the state’s first big project, moved ahead on Wednesday by approving two more utility-scale projects for off the coast, but this time much farther out to sea. The state’s Board of Public Utilities (BPU) approved the projects totaling 3.7 gigawatts, or enough to power about 1.6 million homes, according to the companies. BPU staff, however, put the number at about 1.8 million homes.” You can read the full article here: https://www.inquirer.com/business/energy/new-jersey-offshore-wind-phil-murphy-20240124.html
• According to CNN exit polling, 70% of the New Hampshire voters that cast their primary ballots for Nikki Haley in Tuesday’s Republican presidential primary were not registered as Republicans—instead they were “undeclared” registrants. The next race will take place in Nevada. Interestingly, Haley will appear on the state’s primary ballot but will not participate in the state’s caucus which means she will be ineligible to receive delegates in the contest. Trump, however, is competing in the Nevada caucus.
• MSNBC’s Joy Reid suggested that, despite losing the New Hampshire primary by double-digits, Nikki Haley should remain in the race just in case frontrunner Donald Trump is ultimately convicted of crimes that prevent him from holding office.
• Prior to the New Hampshire primary results, former president Donald Trump said he “couldn’t care less” if Nikki Haley remains in the race or drops out—arguing that the Republican party has already consolidated behind him.
• CNN Senior Legal Analyst Elie Honig notes that the alleged improper relationship between lead prosecutor in the Donald Trump Georgia election interference criminal case, Nathan Wade, and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is problematic and “raises legitimate questions about the D.A.”
