Donald Trump Triumphs in New Hampshire Republican Primary, Nikki Haley Vows to Fight On
In the New Hampshire Republican primary, Donald Trump secured a resounding victory over his challenger, Nikki Haley, bringing him one step closer to a potential election rematch against Democratic President Joe Biden. Despite the final results yet to be announced, projections indicate a double-digit lead for Trump with about half of the votes counted. This victory follows Trump's strong showing in the Iowa caucuses, solidifying his lead in the race for the Republican presidential nomination.
Haley, though acknowledging her defeat in New Hampshire, vowed to continue her campaign, emphasizing that many states are yet to vote. She also criticized Trump's fitness for office and his chances against Biden.
President Biden also claimed victory in the Democratic primary, even though he didn't appear on the ballot. Supporters encouraged voters to write his name in. Despite reports of a "deepfake" robocall discouraging participation, Biden's win was resounding.
With Trump consolidating his grip on the Republican Party, experts speculate on Haley's prospects moving forward, especially given Trump's strong influence among GOP supporters. Despite a strong showing in New Hampshire, she faces an uphill battle ahead.
