Nikki Haley's campaign continues to move forward despite two losses in both Iowa and New Hampshire to former President Trump.
In an update from Axios, Haley continues to move forward with fundraising, and Axios states that she should have enough funds to go beyond South Carolina. The outlet also reports that the next, states she plans to visit are Texas, Florida, California, and New York.
The first on her trail appears to be New York City for an event with one of the event hosts being Home Depot co-founder, Ken Langone. There are other high-profile hosts for this event including well-known private equity giant, Henery Kravis who has a whopping net worth of over $10 billion. Then there is the hedge fund manager and co-founder of AQR Capital Management Clif Asness whose net worth currently stands at $1.6 billion. Axios reports that they acquired this information through a copy of an invitation to the event.
How Much Has Been Raised?
According to the report, Haley has recently raised $ 4 million in online donations which also includes the $1 million she gained a mere 24 hours after former President Trump threatened to permanently bar those who donated to her campaign from his camp. In a statement to Axios Haley's campaign spokesperson, Olivia Peres Cubas stated "Nikki is the last one standing between the rematch no one wants in Trump and Biden." Cubas continued with "70% of Americans want a different choice and that's exactly what we're giving them."
Haley has run a very interesting campaign from ongoing donations as well as standing tall despite her losing to Trump in Iowa and New Hampshire. It would seem that Haley intends to see her entire campaign through regardless of whether she receives the nomination or not.
It was previously reported by HNGN that documents from the town of South Carolina reveal a false emergency incident at the residence of Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley last month, where a man allegedly made threats of self-harm and falsely claimed to have shot a woman, as reported by Reuters. This incident, categorized as a "swatting" event, adds to a concerning trend of violent threats and intimidation targeting government officials, judges, and election administrators since the 2020 election.
