In the race for the Republican presidential nomination, former governor Nikki Haley faces a challenging path ahead. To secure the nomination, Haley must navigate primaries in states where Republicans are not the only ones casting votes. One crucial state for her campaign is South Carolina, where she aims to capture all 50 delegates by relying on independent and Democratic voters. The primary in South Carolina is a winner-takes-all contest.
Moving on to the next contest in Michigan on February 27th, the primary there is not limited to registered Republicans. This state offers 16 delegates, and the allocation is proportional rather than winner-takes-all. However, it presents an opportunity for Haley to gain some traction.
