Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley said Tuesday that she will fight on even if she loses in the New Hampshire primary to former President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

Further, Haley\u2019s campaign manager Betsy Ankney argued in a memo<\/a> first reported on by The New York Times<\/a> that she has a clear path forward, even if New Hampshire does not go her way.<\/p>\n

Ankney wrote, \u201ctake a deep breath\u201d because \u201cwe aren\u2019t going anywhere.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, conservative pollster Richard Baris posted on X, \u201cThe [Nikki Haley<\/a>] campaign has now entered delusion and denial phase, where [Ron DeSantis] was right before and after Iowa.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAlmost all losing campaigns go through it,\u201d he continued. \u201cBack on Planet Earth, New Hampshire<\/a> is her best state demographically, with doomsday after in her own state.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ankney refuted the notion that New Hampshire is, \u201cthe best it\u2019s going to get\u201d for Haley, because of its semi-open primary, which allows undeclared voters, who may even normally vote Democrat, to cast ballots in the Republican primary.<\/p>\n

WMUR-TV<\/a> reported as of Dec. 28, \u201cThere were 343,192 voters registered as undeclared, with 262,262 registered Democrats and 267,905 registered Republicans.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

Do you think Nikki Haley should drop out?<\/p>\n

\n

\nYes: 100% (56 Votes)\n<\/p>\n

\nNo: 0% (0 Votes)\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cUndeclared voters may still vote in the presidential primary by choosing a party ballot when arriving at the polls. Once a ballot is chosen, the voter will become a registered member of that party, but may return to undeclared status before leaving the polls,\u201d the news outlet explained.<\/p>\n

Ankney contended that there are other states with similar open primaries to New Hampshire going up to Super Tuesday on March 5.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe reality is that the path through Super Tuesday includes more states than not that have this dynamic,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n

The next primary is in Haley\u2019s home state of South Carolina, \u201cwhich has no party registration, and anyone can vote in the Republican primary if they have not already voted in the Democratic primary,\u201d Ankley wrote.<\/p>\n

Then she pointed out that 11 of the 16 states up for grabs on Super Tuesday have \u201copen or semi-open primaries,\u201d including Virginia, Texas, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina and Vermont, \u201call with favorable demographics.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ankley said that after Super Tuesday, \u201cWe will have a very good picture of where this race stands.\u201d<\/p>\n

One responded<\/a> on X to the memo writing, \u201cAm I reading this correctly, that the fact the primaries aren\u2019t Republican-only is the advantage? Talk about saying the quiet part out loud \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Fox News host Ainsley Earhardt asked Haley<\/a> on Tuesday, \u201cDo you get out if you lose today?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, I don\u2019t get out if I lose today,\u201d Haley said. \u201cAgain, I\u2019m going to say this, we\u2019ve had 56,000 people [in Iowa] vote for Donald Trump, and you\u2019re going to say that\u2019s what the country wants? That\u2019s not what the country wants.\u201d<\/p>\n
