GOP contest shifts to critical South Carolina primary after Trump notches another dominant win
After winning Nevada’s Republican caucuses late Thursday night, Former President Donald Trump is heading to Pennsylvania for a speech before the National Rifle Association
HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — The Republican presidential contest is shifting to a critical two-week phase ahead of the South Carolina primary, which may prove to be the last chance for Nikki Haley to blunt Donald Trump's march to the nomination.
Enjoying a difficult day for President Joe Biden and fresh off another dominant win in the Nevada caucuses, Trump heads to Pennsylvania on Friday, where he'll address the National Rifle Association. He'll use the forum to highlight his support of gun rights, a major priority for GOP voters. From there, the former president will be in South Carolina this weekend where he and Haley will hold dueling campaign events ahead of the state's Feb. 24 primary.
“We’re leading everybody,” Trump said late Thursday following his Nevada victory. “Is there any way we can call the election for next Tuesday? That’s all I want.”
