Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) outlined a strategy to remain in the race until Super Tuesday on a call with contributors. This strategy includes claiming the U.S. Virgin Islands. Puck News reports that after the caucus, DeSantis's campaign outlined a strategy to contributors on a call outlining how he can remain in the race until Super Tuesday.
Among these ways was coming out on top in the U.S. Virgin Islands caucus on February 8. With only four delegates at stake, the territory's outcome won't matter much if DeSantis continues to lose to Trump in the larger national contests.
The Virgin Islands typically have nine delegates to distribute, but the RNC took half of their delegates away from them since they scheduled their caucus on February 8 instead of after March 1. A grand number of 2,284 delegates are up for grabs. New Hampshire has 22 delegates to distribute, South Carolina has 50, and Iowa has given out 40.
After finishing in second place in the Iowa Caucuses, DeSantis and his team fired employees and switched their attention from New Hampshire to South Carolina in an effort to defeat Nikki Haley in her home state, a move that would demonstrate some force.
