Haley's victory Sunday at least temporarily halts Donald Trump's sweep of the GOP voting contests, although the former president is likely to pick up several hundred more delegates in this week's Super Tuesday races.
MEG KINNARD and WILL WEISSERTStream local breaking news and original programming, live 24/7, from ABC7 Bay Area.Nikki Haley has won the Republican primary in the District of Columbia, notching her first victory of the 2024 campaign.
The Associated Press declared Haley the winner Sunday night after D.C. Republican Party officials released the results. She won all 19 delegates at stake. Trump's campaign issued a statement shortly after Haley's victory sarcastically congratulating her on being named "Queen of the Swamp by the lobbyists and DC insiders that want to protect the failed status quo."
As she gave her standard campaign speech, criticizing Trump for running up federal deficit, one rallygoer bellowed, "He cannot win a general election. It's madness." That prompted agreement from Haley, who argues that she can deny Biden a second term but Trump can't.
