Santorum did not get a bounce, and obviously, Mitt Romney ended up going on to win the nomination. 2016, yours truly, I got 28% in Iowa, won the Iowa caucus. Donald Trump got 24%. Rubio got 23%. So Rubio almost beat Trump in Iowa that year. Ben Carson got 9%, Rand Paul 5%, Jeb Bush 3%, Carly Fiorina, 2% and others, 7% between them. And then you look at this year, Donald Trump, 51%, DeSantis, 21%. So Trump wins by 30 points. So we were saying, you know, traditionally, today, people think of New Hampshire more moderate.
