Governor Chris Sununu expresses strong support for Nikki Haley

Governor Chris Sununu endorses Nikki Haley for president.

Nikki Haley Gains Endorsement and Builds Momentum in New Hampshire

Former South Carolina governor and Republican presidential candidate, Nikki Haley, has received a significant endorsement from Tim Scott, the U.S. Senator for South Carolina. The endorsement comes as a surprise to some, considering the tension that has existed between Haley and Scott in the past. However, Haley had played a pivotal role in Scott's career when she appointed him as U.S. Senator. Despite some initial skepticism, Haley's rise in the polls indicates growing support for her campaign.

While Haley's poll numbers have experienced a slight stumble recently, the backing of Governor Chris Sununu of New Hampshire suggests real momentum for her campaign. Sununu's endorsement is an encouraging sign for Haley, as having the support of a governor can greatly influence voter opinions. Sununu's presence on the campaign trail in New Hampshire further strengthens Haley's connection to the 'live free or die' spirit of the state.

Haley's campaign aims to unite Americans and hold elected officials accountable for their actions. In a recent interview, she criticized the U.S. Senate for being an overpaid and underachieving group of career politicians. She emphasized that she would demand more from the Republicans in the U.S. Senate and work towards delivering tangible results for the American people.

Regarding her support for Donald Trump, Haley expressed her commitment to rallying around him if he becomes the Republican nominee in the general election. She highlighted that even Democrats are recognizing the need for change and are seeking alternatives to Joe Biden. Haley believes that a united Republican Party can lead to victories across all levels of government.

While some concerns have been raised about donations to Haley's campaign, she remains confident that the support will continue as long as she maintains strong momentum. She raised a substantial amount, approximately $24 million, indicating substantial backing. Additionally, Haley's ability to build on the momentum gained from the Iowa caucus is crucial for success in South Carolina, her home state.

As the primary election in South Carolina approaches, Haley aims to strengthen her position and amass delegates. The goal is to create a one-on-one race between her and Donald Trump, with Super Tuesday being a critical milestone to demonstrate her ability to win states. Haley's toughness and commitment to holding government accountable are key factors that have garnered the endorsement of Senator Tim Scott and support from Republican leaders like Governor Chris Sununu.

With a focus on bringing new voters to the table, Haley hopes to leverage her record of results-oriented governance to secure the Republican nomination and ultimately compete against the Democratic candidate in the general election. As she continues her campaign in New Hampshire, meeting voters and attending various events, the enthusiasm surrounding Haley is evident, as shown by the large number of attendees at her town halls who have never heard her speak before.

Despite the cold weather, Haley's determination and the support she receives contribute to the positive energy surrounding her campaign, as she seeks to gain momentum and solidify her position in the highly competitive Republican primary race.
