NASHUA, New Hampshire — Former President Donald Trump was in a celebratory mood as New Hampshire results showed him leading former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, saying it’s time for the party to unify behind him.
Trump handily defeated Haley on Tuesday night, with news outlets calling the race in the former president’s favor just minutes after the last polls closed at 8 p.m. Trump currently leads Haley 54.0% to 44.5% now with 51% of the vote tallied.
The victory also serves as a historic win, as the former president became the first nonincumbent Republican candidate to win both the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire primary.
