From the Wall Street Journal:
Donald Trump won New Hampshire’s GOP presidential primary, propelling him closer to the nomination and a rematch with President Biden, even though Nikki Haley pledged to stay in the race.
With 77% of the estimated vote counted, Trump led Haley 55% to 44%, according to the Associated Press.
Trump lashed out at Haley during a speech from Nashua, N.H., for her positive characterization of her performance. “Who the hell was the imposter that went up on the stage before and, like, claimed a victory? She did very poorly, actually.”
“We had one hell of a night tonight,” Trump declared.
A defiant Haley, Trump’s only remaining top-tier opponent, vowed Tuesday night to press ahead. She entered the New Hampshire contest hoping the state’s independent voterswould lead her to an upset, an outcome that represented her best chance for prolonging the nomination fight.
