“While many of those who backed the former South Carolina governor voted early, almost 20,000 of her votes came from those casting their ballots on Election Day, according to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, suggesting that many simply voted for Haley to protest against the former president’s re-election bid.
The particularly sobering thought for Trump comes when the apparent protest is put in the context of his previous performance in the key swing state. In the 2020 presidential election, he lost Georgia to Joe Biden by fewer than 12,000 votes. Even Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who officially ended his 2024 campaign back in January, managed to get more than 7,400 votes in Tuesday’s primary.”
20k of which were election Day votes after she dropped out.
I hope that is an indication of how many rank and file GOPers have turned into Never Trumpers. Stay home, or vote Biden!
*Hello, Brad? Yes, look, we need only 77,000 votes. I only need 77,000 votes. Fellas, I need 77,000 votes. Give me a break. You know, we have that in spades already.*
That’s way more than 11,780 votes
Trump only needed 11,780 to win in 2020.
Can Dems vote in the Republican primary in GA? Because, if so, that’s probably a decent chunk of them.
Doesn’t this have some effect on funding from the FEC?
That probably included the 11,000 votes Trump was looking for.
Welcome to the 77,000 Nikki Haley voters in Georgia! Let’s make sure Trump loses again.
The GOP is so screwed come November.
Don’t get complacent – vote!!
I live in Georgia, and I have had several women say that this may be their first election not voting (all voted for Trump previously). They don’t want to vote for Biden but they just can’t stand Trump and can’t vote for him. It’s a very small anecdote, but I’m hoping it’s a trend we’ll see across the country. I think we’ll see many people that just won’t vote for Trump. Assuming Biden has a good turnout then it’ll look good for Biden (and this country).

Georgia republicans will fall in line with trump at the end of the day.
This would worry the GOP if there was anyone left there with a brain cell in their head.
They really, really need to steal this one, folks. Keep awake, friends.
I stopped reading at shaved.
I see this similar to “uncomitted” votes democrats are seeing. No consequences. Folks will fall in line election day. However, democrats more likely to stay in bed like most elections.
So it seems Georgia is wrapped up for Joey
People are waking up and realizing that donald is not just against women’s rights, but he is also a rapist.
Only a piece of shit would want a rapist to be the leader of this country.
Trump lost Georgia so this makes sense.
77000 trump voters come November.
Haley received 22% of the votes in this weeks primary in Washington state…
One county in TX – she received 22,888 votes.
Yay! Evil Celine Dion annoys Fascist Cheeto, but is still evil: Vote Blue!
So is a Haley voter more likely to vote for Joe, Trump, or nobody on Election Day? That’s an important question.
Look, I just need you to find 11,780 votes. That’s one more than we need, because we won the state. -Honest Don
I PROUDLY voted for Ron DeSantis yesterday.
DeSantis 2028
I know many of the Washington ballots were cast before she dropped out, but wow she also got over 100K votes with 80% of precincts reporting in WA
Asking for a friend, who does a president have to call to find about 77k votes? 🤣
My state’s primary is yet to happen. I’m going to vote for anyone not Trump. I’m hoping it’ll piss him off to see people still voting against him after he already won.
If she is serious about defeating Trump she should run as an independent with an old school conservative agenda. Give it a catchy name too. Like “Plan for the America Dream”. Release five simple points even simpletons can understand, and siphon those votes away. Don’t underestimate the power of the Never Trumpers and the protest vote!
I would hope she goes out before election and says something along the lines of vote for joe even if you vote for R the rest of your ticket.
Some people will say all of those people will just “fall in line” come November, so it’s worth pointing out that in the 2020 presidential election:
The total # of GOP votes for US House candidates in GA was 2,490,396. Trump got 2,461,854 votes.
In other words, 28.5k GOP voters (nearly triple the number that Biden won by) that voted in GA, didn’t vote for Trump – if they had, he would’ve won.
If only they had integrity to do the same in the general
Georgia is an open primary state. Those were democrats voting for Haley.
“Donald Trump’s overwhelming victory in the Georgia Republican primary Tuesday locked up the 2024 GOP nomination for him, but the state’s results contained a potential warning for his campaign: Nikki Haley received more than 77,000 votes despite suspending her campaign last week ”
Yeah. But he still won.
Not sure how much of a win against Trump it is, but it is another indicator of how flawed our electoral system is
Smartest thing Haley could do right now is endorse Biden. It may earn her a cabinet position and signal to Republicans that there is a still a place for them in government if they disavow Trump.
It could message to the American people that the battle isn’t liberal versus conservative. It’s integrity versus corruption – and that’s a solid win for everyone. *Especially* the GOP which can’t seem to divorce itself from it.
Sadly those 70k votes really only matter if they don’t vote for Trump in the general election.
Who tf cares about Haley anymore? Its Trump vs Biden.
