Trump beats Haley in New Hampshire primary
CONCORD, N.H. — Donald Trump has won the New Hampshire primary, effectively putting the Republican presidential nomination in his grasp for the third time as he defeated his remaining rival, Nikki Haley, in the state where her fortunes appeared strongest.
The Associated Press and television networks projected Trump’s victory shortly after polls closed, based on early returns and surveys of voters.
Although only two states have voted, and only a small fraction of the delegates to this summer’s nominating convention have been allocated, Trump’s victory in Tuesday’s primary underscored his dominance of the party.
Haley, the former South Carolina governor, had spent weeks campaigning here, hoping for a win that could ignite her challenge to Trump, who made few public appearances in the state.
