What's behind former ambassador and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley's perceived upward momentum in the race for the Republican presidential nomination
The former two-term South Carolina governor who later served as ambassador to the United Nations in then-President Donald Trump’s administration has seen some momentum since her well-regarded performance in the first Republican presidential primary debate on Aug. 23.
The crowds Haley attracts on the campaign trail in the early primary states of Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina appear to be growing. And Haley’s seen her support edge up in some of the latest Republican nomination polls, even though she and the rest of the field remain well behind Trump. On Wednesday, President Biden’s 2024 re-election campaign targeted Haley for the first time.
