Ngokwengxelo ye-ace Boston Globe intatheli yezopolitiko uJames Pindell, iRhuluneli yaseOhio uJohn Kasich wenza intshukumo eNew Hampshire. Kumdlalo wakhe wemihla ngemihla onempembelelo Incwadana yeendaba , U-Pindell ubhala ukuba uKasich uya phezulu kwi-poll-in-the-national-polls kwaye unelona qela linomtsalane kurhulumente. Uluhlu lwabasekeli baka-Kasich lubandakanya owayengusenator wase-US u-John E. Sununu, i-NH House Majority Leader uJack Flanagan, owayesakuba ngu-Committeewoman Republic u-Nancy Merrill Kwaye, kutsha nje, iRepublican savant Tom Rath.
Ayizondaba zimnandi ezi kwiRhuluneli uChristie. Ukuvela kukaKasich njengenye indawo yokusekwa kuJeb Bush-the IWashington Post iingxelo ukuba uBush wayesebenze nzima ngakumbi ukuzoba eRath-yenza kubenzima kuChristie ukuzibeka kuloo ndima.
Izolo uFranklin Pierce / iBoston Herald ukuvota ubonise uKasich kwindawo yesithathu kwipesenti ezilishumi elinambini zabavoti baseRiphabhlikhi, emva kwendawo yokuqala uDonald Trump (iipesenti ezili-18) kunye nembaleki yesibini
UJeb Bush (iipesenti ezili-13). UTed Cruz ulandelayo kwiipesenti ezili-10 noCarly Fiorina kwindawo yesihlanu ngeepesenti ezili-9. UChristie uboshwe iminyaka eli-10thindawo noMike Huckabee, bobabini kwipesenti ezintathu. KuChristie, owayekwiipesenti ezili-10 kuvavanyo lokugqibela, olwaqhutywa ngeyoKwindla ngo-2015, oko kukuphulukana namanqaku asi-7 - athelekiswe noRand Paul, owe ukusuka ku-13 ukuya ku-6 waza wagqitha ngoScott Walker, owawa ukusuka ku-15 ukuya ku-4.
Ngokwesitayile, uKasich noChristie babonisa iprofayile efanayo: iirhuluneli ezithethileyo zamazwe amfusa athe gingci kwaye akoyiki ukwenza iintshaba. Ke kunzima ukucinga ukuba kukho indawo yabo bobabini yokuqokelela inkxaso ukuba ngaba isiseko sangaphambili sangaphambili, uBush, ulahlekelwe ngumkhondo.
Le nyani kufuneka ibethe uChristie, ongaphantsi konyaka odlulileyo wabiza uKasich ukuba abe ngumhlobo wakhe osenyongweni phakathi kwabo bonke abanye abalawuli beRiphabhlikhi, ngokwe kwi-AP. Emuva ngo-2010, uChristie wakhankasela kakhulu uKasich ngo-2010, kubandakanya a uhambo oluya eCincinnati lonto inyuse amashiya.

Ngapha koko, kukho ngokusondeleyo ngokumangalisayo ukusondelelana phakathi kweKasich neNew Jersey. U-Bob Franks ongasekhoyo, owayesakuba lixesha elide we-GOP Congressman ophantse wamcaphukisa uJon Corzine ngo-2000 ukuba abe yi-Senator yokuqala yeRiphabhlikhi ukusukela ngo-1972, wajonga uKasich njengomhlobo wakhe osenyongweni. UKasich ngenene ungutatomkhulu kwintombi endala kaFranks kwaye ukusondelelana oko kwamunca abanye kumjikelezo wamaFranks, ngoku abasondeleyo kuKasich, abanjengoRoger Bodman, igqala lobbyist elalisebenza kulawulo lukaKean; UAlfred Fasola, ugqirha wezilwanyana ocebise uKean; UMike DuHaime, owayesisitshixo kuyo yonke imidyarho yamaFrank kwaye ngoku ungumcebisi omkhulu kaChristie; noDavid Wildstein, umseki wale webhusayithi wajoyina iDuHaime kwimikhankaso kaFranks.
UKasich noFranks basondelelana ngelixa besebenza kunye kwiKomiti yoHlahlo-lwabiwo mali yeNdlu kwiminyaka yoo-1990. UKasich noChristie babonana kwinkonzo yesikhumbuzo eyayibanjelwe uFranks ngo-Epreli 2010 kwiCathedral Basilica ye-Sacred Heart. Bobabini bahambisa umbulelo kumsitho kwaye uChristie, ekuphakameni kokuthandwa kwakhe, bavumile ukunceda u-Gov. Kasich ukuba abe yirhuluneli yase-Ohio, kwaye wahambisa. UBodman wade wanceda ekunyuseni imali kwelo phulo.
Elinye icala lokutsala livela kuPapasho oluNgaphambili. I-behemoth epapashayo inelona phephandaba likhulu kunye newebhusayithi kwilizwe ngalinye: the Inkwenkwezi-Ledger eNew Jersey kunye Umthengisi weeThafa eCleveland. Iiwebhusayithi zabo ziyafana kuyilo kunye nokusebenza, kodwa unyango lwabo bobabini abalawuli alunakuba lwahluke ngakumbi. Ngelixa iifayile ze Inkwenkwezi-Ledger ngokwenene Kuvunywa uChristie kunyulo kwakhona kwi-2013, yayiqapheleka ngolwimi lwayo olukrakra, isithi umthwalo weerhafu zepropathi ukhule ngokuqatha kumlindo wakhe kwaye ugqiba uChristie ugqithisile. Ukujikeleza kwakhe kuhamba phambili kwento yakhe. Eli phepha lathi lixhasa uChristie kuphela kuba umchasi wakhe, uBarbara Buono, wayenempazamo enkulu. Kwaye emva kweenyanga ezi-6 kamva, ibhodi yokuhlela uTom Moran uthathe inyathelo elimangalisayo ukurhoxisa ukhetho lwephepha , Ebiza ukuvuma kwakhe ukuzisola ngesihloko. Ngokwahlukileyo, iphepha lodade uMthengisi oPhezulu ugcwele-ngomqala ixhaswe UJohn Kasich, encoma ubunkokheli bakhe obukrwada kwaye emnika isincomo esifanelekileyo. Kuya kuba ngumdla ukubona ukuba ngehlombe iphephandaba ngalinye ligubungela irhuluneli yedolophu yabo.
Okwangoku, i-poll yale veki, ibonisa uKasich enyuka ukusuka kwi-1 ukuya kwi-12 yeepesenti ukusukela ngoMatshi ngelixa uChristie ewile ukusuka kwi-10 ukuya kwi-3 kwimeko uChristie ayichonge njengeyona nto iphambili kwiminqweno yakhe yobumongameli, kuye kwalimala kancinci. Kuyafaneleka ukuthetha ukuba uChristie unokuba nethemba lokuba uKasich uza kuvela njengegunya eliphambili kwiphulo lakhe eNew Hampshire. Endaweni yokuba, umhlobo kaChristie kunye nerhuluneli ebonakala ukuba uthatha inkxaso yakhe.
