Nikki Haley To Withdraw From 2024 Presidential Race, Paves Way For Trump’s GOP Victory: Report
Nikki Haley, the former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, is reportedly set to withdraw from the 2024 presidential race. This decision virtually guarantees that Donald Trump will secure the Republican nomination and go head-to-head with President Joe Biden in the November election.
What Happened: Haley will announce her campaign suspension on Wednesday, the Wall Street Journal reported based on unnamed sources. This decision is expected to solidify Trump’s position as the Republican nominee for the upcoming election.
Why It Matters: Despite her recent victory in the D.C. primary, Haley’s position has been challenged with Trump gaining a significant lead in the GOP race, as indicated by a recent Morning Consult poll. This lead was further solidified by Trump’s success in several key states, including Virginia, North Carolina, Maine, Alabama, Oklahoma, and Tennessee which has put significant pressure on Haley.
Following her win in the D.C. primary, Haley had pledged to continue her campaign through Super Tuesday. Her win was expected to potentially shift the dynamics of the race.
