The 51-year-old Nikki Haley, has a reputation in the Republican Party as a solid conservative who has the ability to address issues of gender and race in a more credible fashion than many of her peers.
WASHINGTON, DC, USA – Former American ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley on Tuesday, February 14, kicked off her campaign for the 2024 Republican US presidential nomination, a tough challenge in a race in which a new Reuters/Ipsos poll shows her former boss Donald Trump holding a strong lead.
The daughter of two Indian immigrants who ran a successful clothing store in a rural part of South Carolina, Haley, 51, has gained a reputation in the Republican Party as a solid conservative who has the ability to address issues of gender and race in a more credible fashion than many of her peers.Haley faces an uphill climb, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Tuesday that found that 4% of registered Republicans supported her.
Trump, 76, has seen his campaign – announced in November – get off to a slow start. On February 2 he mocked Haley on his Truth Social platform, noting she had earlier said she would support Trump if he ran in 2024.Trump was defeated in his 2020 reelection bid by Democrat Joe Biden. Biden is expected to seek reelection in 2024.
One Haley associate said she chose to launch her campaign this early to try to grab voters’ attention and shake up the race.
