MANCHESTER, N.H. — Donald Trump took home a second straight win in New Hampshire’s Republican primary after a commanding win at the Iowa caucuses.
It was the former president's first one-on-one contest against Nikki Haley, after Ron DeSantis ended his campaign after a second-place finish in Iowa. Trump is the first Republican presidential candidate to win open races in Iowa and New Hampshire since both states began leading the election calendar in 1976. Haley insisted she will stay in the race even if she lost in New Hampshire.
On the Democratic side, President Joe Biden will not appear on the ballot because the state's primary violates national party rules Biden pushed for. His supporters have mounted a write-in campaign on his behalf to avoid a loss, even though the contest awards no delegates.
Here's a breakdown of updated election results for New Hampshire's presidential primary.
When will New Hampshire primary results come in?
The last polls in the state close at 8 p.m. ET, although polls in most of the state close at 7 p.m. ET and some close at 7:30 p.m. ET.
What's next after New Hampshire?
Next month's South Carolina primary is the next state where both Trump and Haley would compete. Haley was twice elected governor of her home state, but almost every top elected Republican in South Carolina backs Trump.
