Haley Says She’ll Vote for Trump Anyway

October 27, 2016 at 3:04 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley (R) “is reaffirming her support for Donald Trump, vowing to vote for the GOP nominee despite his attacks on her earlier this year,” CNN reports.

Said Haley: “That doesn’t mean it’s an easy vote. But it does mean that I’m watching out for the people of South Carolina and I’m watching out for the people of this country, and that’s who I will be voting for on November 8.”
