Nikki Haley answered an important question by supporting Donald Trump.
By effectively endorsing Trump in the general election, Haley may answer another important question: Who are her voters?
In Haley’s home state of South Carolina, she finished a tick below 40% of the vote. But Trump won 72% of self-identified Republicans, according to exit polls, to Haley’s 28%. Haley won 59% of South Carolinians who had never voted in a Republican primary before. Only 29% of Haley’s New Hampshire voters said they were strongly for her candidacy. Another 31% backed her with reservations. A plurality of 39% said they disliked other candidates, presumably Trump. Eighty percent of Trump voters said they were strongly for the former president while only 3% were mostly voting against other candidates.
The results were similar in Virginia. Forty-eight percent of Haley voters approved of Biden to 51% who disapproved. Only 1% of Trump voters approved to 97% who disapproved. Trump won 79% of Virginians who considered themselves Republicans before the primary. Haley won 84% of the small number who identified as Democrats.for why she does decently in the primaries, but the former president doesn’t lose many Republicans in general election polls.
