Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ko te Kawana o Wisconsin a Scott Walker kei te tihi o nga raarangi 2016 o nga kaitono o te Republican mo te wiki tuarua i te rarangi. Ko te tokomaha o ngā pōhēhē me ngā pōhēhē i nui te kōrero a te pāpāho, kāore i te āhua i whakaiti i te kaha o te kāwana tuarua i roto i te pōtitanga ā-tuatahi o te peresideni, ā, i roto i tētahi pōti ā-motu a te Whare Wānanga o Quinnipiac i whakaputaina i te Rāhoroi, ko Walker te tuatahi me te 18 ōrau. Ko te Kawana o mua o Florida a Jeb Bush, i whakaarohia i mua ko te kaiarahi GOP, kei muri tonu ia i te 16 ōrau. Ko te Kawana o Wisconsin a Scott Walker e korero ana ki te 42nd Annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) o te American Conservative Union i National Harbor, Maryland, i tera wiki. Kāore a Walker i wikitoria i te pōti a te CPAC, engari kua eke ia ki runga i ngā pōti ā-motu o te tau 2016 mō ngā wiki e rua kua hipa. I ngā wiki e rua ki muri, ko Bush te mea i ārahi i a Walker e rua ngā tohu i ngā rohe tuatahi. Engari i te wā i haere ai te parirau matau o te rōpū ki te rohe o Washington, DC ki te huihuinga Conservative Political Action Conference i te wiki whakamutunga, ko Walker te kaikawe i te rama o te GOP. I kitea e tētahi rangahau a Public Policy Polling i tukuna i te rā i mua i te tīmatanga o te hui, ko te 25 ōrau o te rōpū Reipa i whakakotahi ki te kaiwhakahaere matua o Te Kāwanatanga o Badger. Ko te kaitukituki roro kua reti a Ben Carson, i te timatanga o tenei wiki ko ia te Reipa tuatahi ki te whakarewa i tetahi komiti tirotiro perehitini, i puta mai i te rua o nga whakaaturanga i roto i taua pooti, i te 18 ōrau o nga pooti, i te mea i heke a Bush ki te tuatoru o nga waahi. I tenei wiki, kua hoki mai a Bush ki runga i nga waewae o Walker, ahakoa, i te wa i whiua ai te kawana o Wisconsin mo nga korero i tukuna e ia mo te aroha whenua me te whakapono a te Perehitini Barack Obama, nga kaiwhakaatu i roto i tana kawanatanga me te manene kore ture. I te tīmatanga o te rangahau a Quinnipiac, ka pātai a Associated Press ki a Walker mēnā e whakapono ana ia e aroha ana a Obama ki tōna whenua. Ko te pātai e pā ana ki ngā kōrero a te Tumuaki o New York o mua a Rudy Giuliani i tētahi kai i New York e whakahonore ana i a Walker i te wā i whakaaro ai te kaitono perehitini kua hinga...
Kāore te tokomaha o ngā pōhēhē me ngā pōhēhē i pēhi i te nekehanga o te kāwana mo te wā tuarua i roto i te pōtitanga ā-tuatahi o te peresideni. Ko Walker te tuatahi i roto i te rangahau a te Whare Wānanga o Quinnipiac me te 18 ōrau; ko te Kawana o Florida o mua a Jeb Bush i muri i a ia i te 16 ōrau. Ko ētahi atu mema o te Reipa i whakamātauria e Quinnipiac he iti iho i te haurua o te tautoko o Walker.
