GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley, with only one primary win over front-running Donald Trump, has vowed to remain in the Republican primary race until Super Tuesday.

But she has also repeatedly hedged on her plans after Tuesday.

“Super Tuesday, we’re going to try to be competitive. I hope we go forward,” the former South Carolina governor and U.N, ambassador said Friday. “But this is all about how competitive we can be.”

Fifteen states will hold primaries on Tuesday, with Haley not projected to win enough — or any — gain enough delegates to make the nominating race competitive.

Haley has faced calls from within her party to drop out so the GOP can focus on stopping Democrat incumbent President Joe Biden from winning reelection.
