Trump Projected as Winner of New Hampshire GOP Primary
Former President Donald Trump was given the projected victory by DecisionDeskHQ in the New Hampshire GOP primary Tuesday night right at 8 p.m. ET.
Trump won New Hampshire’s first-in-the-nation Republican primary, while President Joe Biden was projected by NBC News to have won the Democrat primary, despite having to rely on write-in votes.
The former president clinched his second straight victory in his quest for the 2024 GOP nomination after knocking out the rest of the field with a commanding win in Iowa. GOP rival Nikki Haley, meanwhile, came up short in her effort to capitalize on her strength with independent and anti-Trump voters eager for a fresh voice to lead the party.
On the Democrat side, Biden supporters mounted a write-in campaign on his behalf to avoid a loss, even though the contest awards no delegates because it violates the national party rules he pushed for.
