In Tuesday’s Republican presidential primary in New Hampshire, Donald Trump secured a victory, surpassing his primary competitor, Nikki Haley. This achievement follows Trump’s recent record-breaking win in Iowa. Despite Trump’s persistent calls for Haley to exit the race, she asserted to supporters that the competition is far from over and pledged to continue her campaign.
While Trump appears to be making strides toward the GOP nomination, the Tuesday contest unveiled certain challenges for him as a potential candidate in the upcoming general election in November.
Facing narrowing prospects for victory, Nikki Haley, the former governor of South Carolina, maintains her stance as the anti-chaos candidate who believes she can defeat President Biden in the November election.
Joe Biden, though not on Tuesday’s primary ballot, secured a win through a write-in campaign. He is now gearing up for a rematch with Trump in the fall.
The spotlight now shifts to South Carolina’s GOP presidential primary on February 24, the next significant contest on the election calendar. Early state polling indicates Trump leading over Haley, despite her close ties to the state.
