The ex-president Donald Trump this Tuesday he achieved a key victory in the state of New Hampshirea victory that definitely drives him towards the Republican nomination.
Her rival, former governor and former ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley, achieved a better choice than the polls estimated previous.
The AP news agency declared Trump the winner as soon as the voting ended. Trump obtained 53.2% of the votes once morest Haley’s 45.7%.
Sand speculated that he might lower his application. However, Haley promised in a speech Tuesday night that she will not drop out of the race and that she will continue to push forward until at least next month in the South Carolina primary.
“New Hampshire is first in the nation; It is not the last in the nation,” she noted. “This fight is far from over. There are dozens of states left to go,” he said last night.
An average of surveys previous ones indicated between 15 and 18 points in favor of the tycoonbut Haley fought hard at the last moment to overcome the result.
For anti-Trump Republicans, New Hampshire represented perhaps the last battle that they might wage once morest the nomination of the controversial former president and prevent him from running for the White House once more. A CNN exit poll revealed that only 32% said they were part of the Trumpist MAGA (Make America Great Again) movement and 32% said they were not. 31% said they were moderate and 6% liberal, once morest the
In the first internal vote on Monday of last week, the Iowa caucuses or assembly, the magnate swept by more than 30 points. After Iowa two candidates dropped out of the race: businessman Vivek Ramaswamy and the governor of Florida Ron DeSantis. There were only two left in the race.
In this context, another decisive victory for Trump in New Hampshire might secure his nomination and force his last remaining rival to rethink her campaign and throw in the towel. She aspired to surprise and continue. Her result does not seem to have helped her much, although she is still in the race once morest Trump’s wishes, that she needs the primary to be over soon.
Trump sought to close his campaign with his former rivals turned allies. Senator Tim Scott, North Dakota Governor Doug Burgumun and Ramaswamy were joined on stage, in a demonstration of how the field has quickly consolidated behind him.
All the darts that had been fired were left behind. For example, Scott was surprised, who had questioned Trump’s eligibility, leading the traditional song of “Four more years” at the event, calling for the magnate’s return to the White House.
“Get out of bed and go vote,” the former president called. “We must go because we have to win by a big margin,” he added. Trump needs to end the internal affairs as soon as possible to dedicate himself to his trials – he is accused of 91 charges in several cases – including one for allegations of tampering with the 2020 elections, to save money and focus on his main rival, Democrat Biden.
Haley resisted – at least for now – the pressure to lower herself and align with Trump, to simplify the Republican nomination. “In the United States we have elections, not coronations,” she proclaimed, appealing to voters’ spirit of independence from “political elites.”
52 years old, Haley showed herself in the last acts as leader of a generational change in the White House, for which Trump, 77, and Biden, 81, are also competing. She also said that the magnate “showed a cognitive decline” because he had confused her with Nancy Pelosi.

Likewise Haley always avoided harsh confrontation with Trump. She said she hoped to obtain “a good result” in New Hampshire that would keep her in the race. She was betting that the moderates would come out to vote en masse and the independents who hate Trump would join in, because they are authorized to vote in any election. She was excited by the result of the tiny county of Dixeville Notch, which voted in the early morning, and its residents had cast 6 votes for her and zero for Trump.
New Hampshire went to Haley your last chance before reaching the next appointment in the primaries of his home state, South Carolina, in a month and until “Super Tuesday” in March. But the poll numbers for now assign him a defeat also in his own land. The boost she needed was great.
The primaries were also held in New Hampshire Democrats, but without ballots with Biden’s name due to disagreements with the local branch of the party. Although the president has his party’s nomination assured, in recent days the president’s militants called for Biden’s name to be written by hand on the ballots, because it would be a shame if he lost in that state once morest unknown candidates such as Representative Dean Phillips and the writer Marianne Williamson. Finally Biden won by more than 60% of the votes.
Everything indicates that the Biden-Trump duel will be reissued in the presidential elections on November 5. There is still a long way to go but, for now, the polls give them a tie.
