Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley announced Wednesday morning she would be suspending her presidential campaign after a poor showing on Super Tuesday.
“I am filled with gratitude for the outpouring of support we’ve received all across our great country, but the time has now come to suspend my campaign,” Haley began onstage in her home state.
While congratulating the presumptive nominee, former President Donald Trump, Haley stopped short of endorsing him.
“I have no regrets,” she said, adding: “And although I will no longer be a candidate, I will not stop using my voice for the things I believe in.”
The first Republican to challenge Trump, Haley is now the last to drop out, having stayed in the race longer than Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, businessman Vivek Ramaswamy and others.
