Nikki Haley stays in the Republican presidential primary race despite significant defeat in South Carolina

Nikki Haley, former UN ambassador, faced a significant loss in the South Carolina Republican primary against Donald Trump, being defeated by about 20 points. Although Haley doesn't have a clear path to the nomination, she highlighted the continued support from Republican voters looking for an alternative to Trump. Despite her confidence, the influential Koch network decided to cease support for her campaign after the loss, shifting focus to down-ballot races. The upcoming presidential primaries in Michigan will be crucial for the next steps in the race.
