Manchester, New Hampshire – Donald Trump secured a landslide victory in the New Hampshire primary, solidifying his lead in the race for the Republican presidential nomination. Despite his success, rival Nikki Haley remains defiant and determined to continue her campaign for the White House.

With nearly 55 percent of the votes counted, Trump’s victory was clear, giving him back-to-back wins in both Iowa and New Hampshire – a feat not achieved by a non-incumbent in the modern era. This could potentially give him unstoppable momentum as the Republican nominating campaign moves to the South, paving the way for a potential rematch with Democratic incumbent Joe Biden in the 2024 presidential election.

Following his win, Trump confidently addressed his supporters, criticizing Haley for staying in the race and proclaiming that she would never win the Republican party’s nomination for the presidency. Despite Trump’s bold statements, Haley showed resilience at her own election night party, emphasizing that the race was far from over and highlighting the upcoming primary in her home state of South Carolina.

Haley’s determination to keep fighting despite trailing behind Trump in polls raises questions about her campaign’s finances and the willingness of donors to fund a prolonged primary process. The South Carolina Republican primary on February 24 will be the next pivotal moment in the race, followed by Super Tuesday on March 5, when more than a dozen states will hold elections and award delegates.

Throughout his campaign, Trump has secured endorsements from numerous major Republican candidates who have withdrawn from the race, further solidifying his position as the frontrunner. Meanwhile, Biden has issued a statement acknowledging Trump as the Republican nominee and emphasizing the high stakes at play in the upcoming election. Biden himself won the unofficial Democratic primary in New Hampshire, projecting a sense of urgency in his message to the country about the critical issues at hand.
