Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley’s ambitions to win the New Hampshire primary will rely heavily on undeclared voters and former Democrats, according to a political strategist supporting her campaign.

Greg Moore, a senior advisor for Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action), the Super PAC supporting Ms. Haley, said he thinks over 330,000 voters could turn out for the New Hampshire primary on Jan. 23. At this stage, there are only roughly 267,000 Republicans registered to vote in New Hampshire, but undeclared voters can still opt-in to make up the gap.
