This is probably the first time a U.S presidential candidate has been defeated in a state presidential primary by an unlisted rival. However, that’s what happened in Nevada when Nikki Haley ran unopposed as listed on the Nevada primary ballot.
The Republican Nevada presidential primary was Tuesday; but the Republican Party of Nevada switched to maintain a primary caucus approach to selecting the candidate. The Caucus takes place on Thursday.
As an outcome of the process Nikki Haley was the only candidate on the primary ballot for Tuesday. Nikki Haley received 32.4% of the votes, while 61.2% of the republican primary voters selected “none of these candidates.”
(Bloomberg) — Nikki Haley suffered an embarrassing loss in the largely symbolic Republican Nevada presidential primary on Tuesday, while President Joe Biden secured an easy victory in the state’s Democratic vote.
No delegates were at stake and Haley didn’t campaign in Nevada, contending the dynamics gave former President Donald Trump an advantage. Nevertheless, the optics of her coming in second place to the “none of these candidates” option on the ballot represents the latest blow to her longshot challenge to Trump for the nomination.

“No one has beaten me in an election.”
For once, she was telling the truth.
😂😂😂
Nikki Haley is second to none!!
That there’s funny 🤣🤣🤣
Best laugh I have had in a while.
Likki wants to join Casey D on QVC.
Or maybe she could do a Cadillac SUV commercial.
And tout its versatility as a mobile hot spot for rich girls with more money than common sense.
Does it have reclining seats ?
I love that pic of her – captures her true essence.
I read she’s been put on the board of boeing.
She’d be the perfect public face for them right now.
Missing parts and loose screws.

Ouch, that’s a bit embarrassing!
She can not feel embarrassment…she’s really a demonrat.
how humiliating for her…hahahah.
Good.
She’s not eligible anyway. Both of her parents were Indian citizens when she was born. Hence, she is NOT native born.
By the way, neither is Ramaswamy, nor was Obama.
Nor Kommie.
Nor John McCain.
McStain was born in the Panama Canal Zone when it was a territory under U.S. jurisdiction; so yes, he met the criteria. Barry Goldwater was born in Arizona when it was still a territory and he was also eligible to run for POTUS.
Gnashing teeth.
That grill is just nasty.
We refer to that as a bear trap. 😉
I have seen better dentation on a nutria..
hahahah!
That grill of hers reminds me of grandpa’s ’53 Buick!
That’s too funny.
Mitt Romney in a skirt. She is just simply unlikeable.
And, like Meatball, the more people who encounter her the less they will like her.
🤣
That really is it. Unlikable is absolutely accurate.
Missed Nimarata’s Victory Speech last night…
So did she.
You went for jugular with that comment. I love it
Hahahhaaa~!
Tee hee hee!!
Why in the world would Nikki register to be on a ballot that has no significance, i.e., no electoral votes to be had?????
Were her campaign managers delusional? Did they actually think she would “get” the votes, even though they mean NOTHING??? Are her handlers planning to somehow sabotage the CAUCUS vote tomorrow evening? We shall see.
As the only person running (unopposed) she was hoping for a win in the useless election for the simple optics and narrative they could twist.
The result I saw previously also had Mike “Judas” Pence with around 6% vote as well, still losing to “Someone Else”.
I read that Nikki Haley and Tim Scott were candidates in the primary to give their campaigns a boost heading into the South Carolina primary, since they both have South Carolina ties. It would give the appearance of winning or doing well despite earning zero delegates.
Nailed it. Her handlers banked on the fact that most people would not know that the Nevada delegates to the GOP convention are selected in the state party caucus during presidential election years.
Because they know there is a Progressive in Nevada with the pronouns: “none of these candidates”. They will unveil them tomorrow as the winner. Meet “None of These Candidates” with flaming pink and purple hair. (lol)
All comments here are absolutely hilarious!
Proof positive….Birdbrain.
Some news stories said she went for the Primary ballot because it would have cost her $55,000 to qualify for the Caucus ballot.
That’s chump change for Mean Kampf.
She didn’t want to cough up the $55,000 back when there was a full field of candidates.
MINE, MINE, TEKEL, PARSIN.
The handwriting is on the wall.
“The handwriting is on the wall.”
Presidential candidate Nik “Graffiti” Haley…..
Nikki’s Campaign staff are highly paid nincompoops. Haley thought she would make gains for the future with the GOPe and the big money donors. Now her political career is just about down the drain. Trump knows not to trust her or any of her advisors! 🙂
“Nikki Haley suffered an embarrassing loss in the largely symbolic Republican Nevada presidential primary on Tuesday, while President Joe Biden secured an easy victory in the state’s Democratic vote.”
Proving that Republican voters are mush smarter than Democrat voters.
Republican voters elected DitchMitch and WalkthepLANKFORD.
Very few of them had Mitch the Utah Senator to watch in action. Hindsight is always 20/20. CTH is informing a lot of Repugs now. Nothing ever stays the same and it is not worth harping on political events of 12 years ago when 6 months is an eternity in politics.
As for Lankford, he is from Oklahoma and he naturally gravitates toward the most powerful Senator from his Party, since the DC Swamp is a foreign territory for most people from Oklahoma. Oklahoma will handle LANKFORD when the time comes, I hope.
As for me, I voted for Romney, but the choice was a rich guy from the Country Club against a Communist. I chose the lessor of the two evils. This time I will vote for a richer guy against the sock puppet of the same Communist. And I have always thought LANKFORD was in over his head. I am still laughing at the Nikki Haley fail. 🙂
Ha ha ha omg. How long has DitchMitch been in the Senate, 100 years?
“Come on, maaaaan.”
… yet Marquette Law School polling wants me to believe that she is currently running “+15” against Biden in Wisconsin…… while Trump is only running “+1″……..
I wish I were joking…..
Marquette Lawfare School
FIFY

Given that he will take more votes from Biden than from Trump, I wish him well.
Democrat voters disgusted with Biden and what’s been done, so far, but who also cannot under any circumstance vote for Trump. DeSantis fans?
Maybe some of them. I wonder who Bill Kristol is going to vote for? 🙂 Or Ken Griffin.
DeSantis’ “Don’t Back Down” pac people are going to Trump, not Nikki.
Yep.
Definitely seat that crew at the kids’ table…
Hubris. The term was invented for him.
FAUX desperately wants Republicans to vote for RFK, Jr. as an alternative to Trump when Nikki drops out. From the way Karl Rove was wailing away this am about the RNC being in disarray, RFK, Jr. could see money from Rove-Bush & others.
MAGA needs to keep recruiting new members. At an interview in a black barbershop, many said “I had money in my pocket when Trump was in the WH. I don’t have money in my pocket under Biden.”
Not even RFK, Jr. has much of a plan on the economy. Neither does Nikki.
Don’t let up!!
She is amazing, she is second to none!
I see what you did there.
I wish I’d come up with that. It’s by a much cleverer man. Hint: there is a link in the “second to none” part.
I wish I was as fast on my feet as DJohn.
‘None’ can top her!
Icky.
You will make Nimrod mad,
She prefers to be on top while fornicating in her Cadillac SUV
Hahaha!
what a joke. now go away, Nimarata
It’s too long to fit but, “Don’t Blame Me, I Voted for None of These Candidates” would be a great bumper sticker.
We need to throw ALL of them out and then some.

It serves as a rather concrete poll of Trump’s likely Nevada caucus outcome.
I hope SC voters deliver a 50-pt win for Trump. That will be the end of Haley and the “primaries”. And it’ll allow more focus on the legal fights. Less money campaigning = more money to fight the Lawfare cabal.
I posted several days ago that SC conservatives need to go out in full force and vote for Trump in the primary to overcome what will likely (IMO) be substantial Democrat interference. I wish I could find that other comment, I showed how many votes there were in the GOP and Dem primaries for the past 3 cycles. The SC Dem primary was already done and the number of votes was very low, I think because a lot of the Dems are planning to vote in the GOP primary.
I actually found my comment: https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/02/04/february-4th-2024-presidential-politics-resistance-day-1111/comment-page-5/#comment-10557762
The South Carolina Democrat primary was yesterday (Saturday Feb 1). The number of votes was very low compared to prior years. I’m afraid it’s because a lot of Dem voters are going to interfere in the GOP primary. I have seen conversations on social media sites pledging that very thing.
2024: 131,286 total votes
2020: 539,263 total votes
2016: > 368,877 total votes (I only counted Hillary’s and Bernie’s votes)
Look at the difference between the 2020 and 2024 totals. Consider what might happen if Trump supporters are complacent and some don’t bother to vote, and then 400K Dems vote for Haley? We cannot let her win SC.
It might also be a reflection that Biden voters in 2020 are no-shows & much less enthusiastic about Biden than they were in the primaries last time around. He’s missing on the campaign trail where it counts–among the grass roots voters. And is rarely seen other than at fundraising events or on the WH lawn getting on Marine One to go on vacation.
That’s not a good luck for any candidate. Nikki fundraising in California instead of campaigning in Nevada is much the same “elitist” nosethumbing look as Biden.
The Libertarian Party includes “None of the Above” on all ballots they control. If NOTA wins, NONE 9f the candidates running are allowed to run in the do-over election. Just imagine what this country would look like if this option had ALWAYS been on EVERY federal, state, and local election ballot? Good for Nevada for allowing REAL CHOICE and REAL VOICE for their voters.
“None of the Above”
Monty Brewster smiles in approval.
There was even a libertarian science fiction novel out in the 90’s (or maybe 80’s…) called The Probability Broach which used the None of the Above idea.
It was an alternate universe in which the USA had built itself on the Articles of Confederation instead of our Constitution. Interesting…
None of the Above won the Presidency occasionally and there would be none for 4 years, with an empty picture frame hanging in the White House.
“Ha ha!”
Maybe Gas Station Sushi will jump in now that Nikki fell to None Of The Above.
😂
My favorite candidate after PDJT!
Gas Station Sushi should be named for FauxChi’s job…
I wonder what the Sea Island crowd is thinking of this defeat.
I’m enjoying seeing them lose millions of dollars on this card board cut out Haley.
Stay in the race Nicky…..it’s rigged right?
Maybe we will see renewed numbers of eggs placed in the Vivek basket.
Adopting the false narratives & smears hurled at your opponent by the Democrat Left while trying to woo engaged and informed Conservatives in a Republican primary isn’t just plain stupid, it’s political suicide.
Who the hell has been advising this Dingbat . . . . Chris Christie❓
Bye, bye Birdbrain❗️
The ballots were misprinted. It was supposed to be an actual Nigerian American candidate named Nunnah Dabuff. HE won. He plans to name his running mate later, Dindu Nuffin.
LOL
Of course, the Dindu-Nunnah Dabuff Ticket.
🎫
What could possibly be not to like?
Both are, as Joe Biden said, “really clean black men”
……the Dindu-Nunnah Dabuff Ticket.
Now that, sir, is funny 🙂
“That’s a storybook, man!”
This comment is priceless!
61% of Republicans can’t stand Trikki Nikki!!
Wayne Allen Root told all of his followers to vote in this primary contest for “non of these candidates”.
If you are a billionaire, send her more money!
Did you hear that chortle and snort laugh?
Yeah… that was me.
God is smiling and laughing
Perfect picture of her. I CAN’T STAND how she talks with her teeth clenched all the time.
I’ll bet she bites! She should be on a Leash.
The TeethLisper
Me too!
what’s up with that?
Looks like she’s hissing.
A snake….
Wayne Root claims that his radio show had boosted the voting for none of the above. Glad that he encouraged that.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/02/wayne-root-we-did-that-how-my-las/
The Warroom Posse also was involved.
“Birdbrain”!
She’s delusional
Well kudos to smart Nevada MAGA voters not to fall for any con games … And a small beer to Nikki for beating Mike Pence by like 28 points – that was a win of Trumpian proportions , even if it was punching down a couple of weight classes – so to speak , but a small beer toast nonetheless ( sarcasm note , not really needed, I think)
Is she the turtle on a fence? Because I don’t think she actually believes in anything.
Someone!
Nikki refused to pay the $50k required to be on the caucus ballot. The filing fee pays the NV. Caucus costs (self funded) while the state pays the primary costs. Now one can understand why the D legislature and the D governor in 2021 mandated a state primary; since it is paid for by taxpayers. R caucus also requires ID to enter and participate. The primary had mail out ballots and no voter ID at polling place .
I didn’t know that! Thank you for the info. It makes sense now. However, I still cannot fathom how she chose to be on/in a voting match that was KNOWN to not accomplish anything, i.e., NO electoral votes, even if you win. What is she – a birdbrain???!!!
Well Rich Baris has all the answers for you. And it is hilarious!!! Enjoy. I’m watching it a 2nd time because it’s so GOOD. And I live in NV and voted None of These. One of the best votes I ever made. Aside from Trump.

1. She probably was short on campaign funds since she would have had to sign up when there was a full set of candidates in the running.
2. If she couldn’t pull off a win in the primary, she could claim it was all a scam rigged for Trump. She lost, she did.
3. She never thought Republicans would vote for “None of the above.” They did.
4. Rookie error/bad campaign advice in her first run at the presidency. Biden had to be installed the 4th time he ran, having had to drop out of 3 previous runs.
5. In it for the super pac money she gets to keep if she loses.
Also, add in that the NV Republican Caucus also touts:
Election Day not Election Month
Voter ID
Paper Ballots
Transparent Tabulation
No Dark Money
Precinct Based Voting
She is still trying to get the number to make the concession phone call.
Spits out my drink laughing.
The Nevada caucus IS rigged for President Trump. IDs are required and Democrats can’t vote in the Republican caucus!
LOVE the Nikki headshot!
Nimarata Randhawa sort of rolls off the tongue.
Gurl gonna flip for the Dem nomination😏
I was thinking that Nikita would be able to declare a “huge” victory with Our President not even on the ballot, not being aware that there would be other, more desirable choices over her sorry ass. Karma in action….
she looks like the mumakil in the Lord of the Rings movie.
How appropriate!
Just as much of a loser.
My son told me Nevada had these dumb rules!
That picture of Icky has me laughing!!! The backstabber earned this!!
