Donald Trump cruises to victory in New Hampshire primary

New Hampshire, January 24

Donald Trump cruised to victory in New Hampshire’s Republican primary on Tuesday, marching closer to a November rematch with Democratic President Joe Biden even as his sole remaining rival for the nomination, Nikki Haley, vowed to soldier on. “This race is far from over,” Haley, a former UN ambassador, told supporters at a post-election party in Concord, challenging Trump to debate her. “I’m a fighter. And I’m scrappy. And now we’re the last one standing next to Donald Trump.”

At his party in Nashua, Trump mocked Haley calling her an “imposter” and saying: “She’s doing, like, a speech like she won. She lost ...She had a very bad night.” The next competitive contest is scheduled for February 24 in South Carolina, where Haley was born and served two terms as governor. In New Hampshire, with 86% of the expected vote tallied, according to Edison Research, Trump held a comfortable 54.4% to 43.5% lead. — Reuters
