Nikki’s Last Hope

Nikki Haley's decision to participate in Super Tuesday may not significantly alter her trajectory, given Trump's consistent and considerable lead in both polls and grassroots support. While Nikki's path to securing the GOP nomination is becoming narrower, with Trump poised to lock it after Super Tuesday, Virginia remains a crucial battleground that could offer her a slight resurgence, albeit probably insufficient to secure the nomination. Virginia holds significance for Nikki due to its alignment with her values and the support of educated suburban voters, factors reflected in her recent fundraising success. However, despite her historic campaign progress, it's likely that Nikki will eventually withdraw from the race, especially as Trump's dominance solidifies post-Super Tuesday.
