The “None of These Candidates” option received more support than former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley in the Nevada Republican presidential primary on Tuesday, according to the Associated Press.
Haley chose to compete in the state-run primary rather than the Nevada GOP-run caucus, which former President Donald Trump is participating in on Thursday instead. The former ambassador brought in 33.4% support in the primary after the “None of These Candidates” option at 60.3%, the AP projected at the time of writing.
Nevada’s GOP had been holding presidential caucuses for decades when former Democratic Gov. Steve Sisolak signed legislation in 2021 implementing a state-run primary system for such elections. The state Republican Party decided to keep its caucus system, requiring candidates to decide between participating in its contest or the state-mandated primary.
