Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley is emerging as a runner-up in the race for the Republican presidential nomination, according to recent polls and interviews in Iowa.
In an interview on NewsNation’s “On Balance,” host Leland Vittert posed a forward-looking question, asking if Haley, if nominated, would consider former President Donald Trump as her running mate.
Haley responded, “I’m not going to think about who’s going to be my VP yet, but in six months, I’ll be happy to tell you.”
Is Nikki Haley the top alternative candidate to Donald Trump? Haley’s team, which includes members from Florida Sen. Marco Rubio‘s 2016 campaign, is strategically targeting key counties in Iowa, such as Polk and Dallas County, where she aims to garner support from both Republicans and crossover Democrats and independents. Their goal is to perform well in Iowa and carry that momentum into New Hampshire and beyond.
During a rally in Iowa, Haley outlined her campaign strategy, stating, “Our goal is to make today better than yesterday. That’s it—strong in Iowa, strong in New Hampshire, strong in South Carolina, and keep it going from there.”
When asked about the challenge of appealing to both establishment Republicans and working-class Trump voters, Haley emphasized her focus on winning over a majority of Americans.

But she came in third, & the county she won, Johnson County, she had only 1 vote more than Trump. However, they state only 99% in, so I guess there is a chance she could end up losing the county ultimately.
Here is that Iowa election map - Hover cursor over County to see the voted.
Of course, it's laughable to even speculate that Haley would be in that position. Especially based on the results from last night.

They misspelled off balance
She finished 3rd. Why is everone paying attention. to her?
Root beer slushies all around!
It’s the narrative that matters🙄
Hahaha
How’s that working out ?
Trump wins 98 counties. The only county she won she got by 1 (one) vote
And 75 percent of Angry Trumpers would vote for Biden if somehow Trump was removed from the race. Should tell you something.
I’ll vote for DeSantis, but Nikki, never!
Those people are Never Trump. They’ve latched onto Nikki for now. Some of them will go to Biden, some to a third party, or they just stay home.
Nikki is a dead man walking, especially since she will not say what the difference between a man amd a woman is.
Soon the weapons lobby will abandon her as a waste of money.
Damita has dementia.
LOL
Line of the day on a day full of standout drollery!
To put it politely, ninety four percent of all statistics are something that someone just made up right there on the spot.
There might be another more poetic way of saying it, of course.
“She finished 3rd. Why is everone paying attention. to her?”
Because she’s their preferred pantywaist. She’s next in line.
George Bush, Bob Dole, George Bush, John McCain, Mitt Romney, Jeb Bush, Nikki Haley.
When did that happen?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Go back to the globalists Niki 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
