Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley is gearing up for her one-on-one primary battle against former President Trump in New Hampshire after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis dropped out of the race on Sunday afternoon.

"We just heard that Ron DeSantis dropped out of the race. And I want to say to Ron, he ran a great race. He's been a good governor. And we wish him well," Haley said at a campaign stop in New Hampshire.

"Having said that, it's now one fella and one lady left," Haley continued, referring to herself and Trump. "There were 14 people in this race, a lot [of] fellas. All the fellas are out, except for this one. And this comes down to what do you want? Do you want more of the same or do you want something new?"

DeSantis dropped out of the GOP presidential nomination race via a video posted to his X account, and he threw his support behind Trump and called Haley a "repackaged form of warmed-over corporatism."

"If there was anything I could do to produce a favorable outcome, more campaign stops, more interviews, I would do it," DeSantis said. "But I can't ask our supporters to volunteer their time and donate their resources if we don't have a clear path to victory. Accordingly, I am today suspending my campaign."
