Nikki Haley is expected to withdraw from the Republican presidential race following her defeat on Super Tuesday

Sources cited by the Wall Street Journal suggest that she will refrain from making an endorsement on Wednesday

Newsroom March 6 05:46

Nikki Haley, the former Governor of South Carolina, is expected to end her bid for the Republican presidential nomination on Wednesday. This decision comes after she only won one state on Super Tuesday, while former President Donald Trump secured significant victories across multiple states, as reported by various sources.

Reports from close sources indicate that Haley will withdraw from the race after emerging victorious in only one out of 15 contests held on Tuesday. Despite being the last major challenger to Trump and voicing criticism against him throughout her campaign, she managed to win in Vermont but faced substantial defeats in other states.

Spokeswoman Olivia Perez-Cubas emphasized on Tuesday that there remains a significant segment of Republican primary voters expressing reservations about Donald Trump, highlighting the lack of unity within the party.

Although Haley secured wins in the District of Columbia and Vermont during her campaign, she struggled to gain momentum in other states. She placed third in Iowa and suffered a significant loss in New Hampshire, where she trailed by over ten points after most other candidates had dropped out. Last month, she failed to secure a victory in her home state of South Carolina, where she is expected to formally announce the suspension of her campaign.

Furthermore, the Koch network’s Americans for Prosperity ceased funding Haley following her fourth primary loss.

While initially indicating her intention to support the Republican party’s nominee last year, Nikki Haley has recently been reluctant to confirm whether she will endorse Donald Trump if he secures the nomination. Sources cited by the Wall Street Journal suggest that she will refrain from making an endorsement on Wednesday.

In February, Haley expressed her reservations about Trump, stating, “What I will tell you is that I have serious concerns about Donald Trump. I have more serious concerns about Joe Biden.”

During Trump’s presidency, Haley served as his ambassador to the United Nations for several years.

Despite Haley’s reservations, Trump enjoyed significant success on Super Tuesday, securing victories across the South and in states like California, Minnesota, and Maine. As he prepares for a potential rematch with Biden in November, Trump has taken the lead in polling in crucial swing states.
