CONCORD, New Hampshire — Gov. Chris Sununu‘s (R-NH) decision to put his political muscle behind former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley was no match for former President Donald Trump, who cruised to victory in the New Hampshire primary Tuesday night.

The Associated Press called the race for Trump just moments after polls began to close at 8 p.m. Trump eventually bested Haley, 54% to 43%, with 97% of the vote counted.
