Former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley announces 2024 Presidential Run

SOUTH CAROLINA (WOLO) – Former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley announced today that she is running for President of the United States.

She will deliver her announcement speech, Wednesday, February 15, 2023, in Charleston, South Carolina.

Haley also served as the United Nations ambassador under former President Donald Trump, who is also running for President in 2024.

DNC Chair Jaime Harrison issued the following statement in response to Nikki Haley announcing her entrance into the 2024 Republican primary:

“Nikki Haley served in Donald Trump’s administration, has embraced the most extreme elements of the MAGA agenda and couldn’t even identify a single policy difference between herself and Trump. Her governorship in South Carolina included signing an extreme abortion ban into law with no exceptions for rape or incest, endorsing a plan to end Medicare as we know it, pushing for tax cuts that benefit the ultra wealthy and corporations, and refusing to expand Medicaid to provide affordable health care access for hundreds of thousands of South Carolinians.

“Haley’s entrance officially kicks off a messy 2024 primary race for the MAGA base that has long been brewing. Everyone get your popcorn.”
