Two new national Republican presidential primary polls released today show former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie in the low single digits.

A Morning Consult Poll has Christie in fifth place with 3%.  Donald Trump leads Ron DeSantis, 66%-13%, with Nikki Haley in third place with 9%.  Vivek Ramaswamy has 7%.

A The Messenger/Harris X Poll has Christie also in fifth place with 2%.  Trump leads DeSantis, 62%-11%; Haley is at 10%, followed by Ramaswamy at 4%.

The most recent poll of Iowa Republican caucusgoers has Christie at 3%, and the latest GOP poll in South Carolina has him at 1%.

Christie is resting his presidential ambitions on New Hampshire, where a Washington Post/Monmouth University poll released last week as him in third place with 11%.  Trump holds a 46%-18% lead over Haley, with Ramaswamy at 8% and DeSantis at 7%.
