The vote nonetheless revealed weaknesses that could pose problems in a general election, so Republicans in New Hampshire should think hard if they want to gamble on another Trump run.
Mr. Trump’s victory was the widest in Iowa caucus history for a non-incumbent race, with close to 51% of the vote at this writing.
Ron DeSantis with about 21% was running slightly ahead of Nikki Haley for a distant second.
The result is a show of organizational strength that Mr. Trump didn’t have in 2016 when he lost the state to Ted Cruz .
