Donald Trump has won the South Carolina Republican presidential primary, CNN projects, defeating Nikki Haley on her home turf as he completed his sweep of the early voting states.
Already the prohibitive favorite to claim his third straight nomination, the former president’s victory in the Palmetto State, where Haley was twice elected governor, has all but ended the race — even as Haley insists that she will keep battling at least into next month. Trump’s dominance in South Carolina was hardly surprising. The state is among the most conservative in the country and has backed the former president every time he’s been on the ballot.
Her policy positions and general tone in discussing the issues reflected that. Her fate in this primary confirmed it. Where does Haley go from here? There was once a narrow, but tantalizing, path for Haley to seriously challenge Trump for the Republican nomination. She’d need to win New Hampshire, with its much more moderate electorate built in part on a slew of independents participating in the state’s GOP primary.
