President Donald J. Trump scored a decisive victory on Tuesday night in New Hampshire, and also set a new record.
President Donald J. Trump scored a decisive victory on Tuesday night in New Hampshire, and also set a new record.
As renowned pollster Rich Baris points out, Trump demolished the record for most votes ever cast for a presidential candidate in an NH primary. The record was previously held by Bernie Sanders in 2016.
In 2016, Sanders received 152,193 votes, crushing Hillary Clinton.
At time of publication, 152,565 votes were cast for President Trump, with 13% of the votes still yet to be tallied.
Trump triumphed over his only remaining competitor, Nikki Haley. This win serves to further solidify Trump's position as the undisputed front-runner in the race for the GOP's 2024 presidential nomination.
As of late Tuesday night, the exact margin of Trump's victory awaited confirmation, but the outcome in the Granite State deals a setback to Haley's attempts to rally an anti-Trump coalition - made up of independents and Democrats - who aimed to impede his progress toward the nomination.
Following Trump's victory, Haley doubled down on staying in the race, assuring her supporters that "this race is far from over."
Trump criticized Haley, saying "somebody ran up to the state all dressed up nicely when it was at seven, but now I just walked up it’s at 14," he said, noting his lead over Haley in the election results. "She was up and I said wow, she’s doing like a speech like she won. She didn’t, she lost.
"We'll head out to South Carolina where I think we're going to win easily. I think we're 50 points up … on a person that was governor, that tells you something, but I felt I should do this because I find it a life you can't let people get away with bullsh*t, okay. And when I watched her, the fancy dress, it probably wasn't so fancy, come up I said what is she doing? We won. And she did the same thing last week."
An astounding 70% of Haley voters were not Republicans.
To succeed in the November elections, it’s crucial that we participate in large numbers to vote, as this is our primary strategy to counteract any potential election fraud. Make sure your neighbors and relatives vote (if they are not democrat).
SC is an open primary state. You go to the polls and are offered a Rep or Dem ballot. There are no registered voters.by party. Haley is hoping that Dems crossover and vote for her. She is the Dem candidate to stop/weaken Trump.
Haley and her donors are hoping that Trump is convicted before the Convention. Jack Smith and Fani Willis are seeking to achieve that objective. Smith wants his trials to begin before Super Tuesday.
Well timed quote.
Star trek had a create episode based around that quote where Picard was constantly asked what he saw and told it was otherwise.
IMHO that is one of the main functions of colleges today, to indoctrinate people to do just that, ignore their experiences and believe what the state tells them.
Trump set record Iowa too
Despite severe cold
But, but...Nimrata got ALL 7 votes in the little NH town of Whiner’s Crotch.
“I doubt that even a huge loss in her home state of SC would dissuade her. She’s backed by some huge big money donors that fear Trump literally.....................”
Yep. The same people who tried to bribe Kari Lake.
She was vicious in her speech. She came across as even more shrewish than we thought.
Haley got 70-75% of her votes from non GOP voters
Nuff said
Trump got record turnout and beat her 14-15 points anyhow
It’s a thumping in that context
Hah......double digit Trump win over Haley.......and she still doesnt get it.
Haley is a Democrat stalking horse in the field to hurt Trump and help Biden. Anyone who supports her is neither a Republican or a conservative. She is fracturing the GOP, a rea nasty woman, just like a Romney.
Trump is the first sitting President to lose when increasing his vote total, in this case by 11 million, a 17% increase from 2016. He has the 2nd highest vote total for President in history and the highest for a GOP candidate by far. Trump also had coattails by sweeping 27 toss-up seats.
Biden didn’t get 81 million votes. The election was stolen.
Voting in a Republican primary.
She's in it for herself, not the party she supposedly represents. She is only helping herself and Biden now.
Dem Primary is Feb 3rd. Repub primary is Feb 24th. You can only vote in one.
The next primary in SC is a month away, so the newsies will fill in that time with speculation, polls and ‘expert’ swags.
Meantime, the ACF/NFC Championships are this weekend and the Pro-Bowl Fag, er FLAG, Games next weekend and finally the Superbowl on February 11.
The SC Primary is on Saturday, February 24...................
I think you are correct.
