Five takeaways from the NH primary

Former President Donald Trump and President Biden each declared victory in Tuesday’s New Hampshire primaries, making a general election rematch look even more likely. 

From record Republican turnout to intra-party criticism, here are the top five moments from the New Hampshire primaries:

1. Haley vows to stay in the fight 

Despite her second loss in a row to Trump and polls suggesting the upcoming contests in Nevada and South Carolina — her home state — would produce similar results, Haley vowed to continue campaigning for the Republican nomination.

2. Trump declares himself the unity candidate

In an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital’s Brooke Singman following his victory, Trump said he was “very honored” by the support he received from voters, and declared that the Republican Party was “very united” behind his candidacy.

“I’m very honored by the result,” Trump said, adding that he was “looking forward to going against the worst president in the history of our country” in the general election, referencing Biden.

3. Biden wins New Hampshire via write-in campaign

Biden won his party’s primary despite failing to file as a candidate in the state last year, but did so with a massive write-in campaign that saw him carrying around 60% of the vote. But Democratic primary challenger Rep. Dean Phillips isn’t standing down.

4. Big-name Republicans turn on Haley

Following Trump’s sizable win, more big-name Republicans began calling on Haley to drop out of the race, including Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel.

“Looking at the math and the path going forward, I don’t see it for Nikki Haley,” McDaniel told Fox News.

5. Record turnout

The New Hampshire Republican primary saw record turnout on Tuesday despite some reports that low energy among voters would depress the vote.

With approximately 92% of the vote counted, more than 293,000 ballots had been cast compared to just over 101,000 with approximately 88% of the vote counted in the Democrat primary.
