New Hampshire primary results live: Trump emerges victorious over Haley in pursuit of GOP nomination

Donald Trump beats Nikki Haley in New Hampshire

Donald Trump and Joe Biden have won their respective primaries in New Hampshire.

The former president attacked his last remaining challenger Nikki Haley for staying in the race even as he’s pulling ahead in the delegate count.

Ms Haley, a former South Carolina governor, said in her speech on Tuesday night that the race is “far from over”.

“There are dozens of states left to go… and the next one is my sweet state of South Carolina,” she told the crowd in the state capitol of Concord.

A frustrated Mr Trump appeared to threaten his former UN ambassador, saying that she’ll be under investigation for “stuff she doesn’t want to talk about”.

With 91 per cent of the vote counted on Wednesday morning, Mr Trump was leading Ms Haley in the Granite State by 54.6 per cent to 43.2 per cent, roughly in line with the 11 percentage point gap estimated by the final opinion polls before the primary.

Mr Biden did not appear on Democratic ballot papers following a feud with organisers, but a write-in campaign ensured his victory in the symbolic Democratic primary in the state.

With 91 per cent of the vote counted on Wednesday morning, Donald Trump was leading Nikki Haley in the Granite State by 54.6 per cent to 43.1 per cent, or his 163,396 votes to her 129,104.

That would be roughly in line with the 11 percentage point gap estimated by the final opinion polls before the primary, which had Trump on 50 per cent to Haley’s 39 per cent.

Despite all other candidates suspending their campaigns before Tuesday’s vote in New Hampshire, thousands of people still opted for someone other than Trump or Haley, according to the latest Associated Press results.
