The super PAC backing former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley entered the election year in January with just $3.5 million in cash, according to new Federal Election Commission records. The relatively small sum raises new questions about whether Haley can finance a viable presidential primary campaign over the coming months.

The new report Wednesday from SFA Fund Inc. covers the period from July 1 through Dec. 31, 2023. It reveals the committee raised just over $50 million, but spent nearly $63 million to back Haley. The super PAC entered the reporting period in July with around $17 million, but finished with a paltry $3.5 million war chest after spending heavily on ads.

The numbers from SFA Fund come as some of Haley’s wealthiest donors consider whether to continue helping, especially after the former South Carolina governor suffered bruising defeats to the GOP front-runner, former President Donald Trump, in the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire primary.

Hope she saved enough back to at least take John Bolton to dinner, she owes him for embarrassing himself on TV by supporting her.

Sounds like a nominee for the Jebbie!
