On Tuesday, former primary rival Nikki Haley officially released all 97 of her delegates to Donald Trump.
Haley's move comes shortly before the Republican National Convention is scheduled to kick off in Milwaukee where Trump will be officially named the 2024 Republican nominee for president.
Politico reports:
“The nominating convention is a time for Republican unity,” Haley will reportedly say in an upcoming statement.
“Joe Biden is not competent to serve a second term and Kamala Harris would be a disaster for America. We need a president who will hold our enemies to account, secure our border, cut our debt, and get our economy back on track. I encourage my delegates to support Donald Trump next week in Milwaukee,” the statement will add.
Haley eventually endorsed Trump for president after suspending her presidential campaign.
Despite her support of Trump the former United Nations ambassador will reportedly miss the Republican Convention.
Haley spokesperson Chaney Denton told Politico that Haley “was not invited, and she's fine with that. Trump deserves the convention he wants. She's made it clear she's voting for him and wishes him the best.”
