The news agency Reuters, citing the polling company Edison Research, said that in the 75 percent of the votes counted, Trump got 54.2 percent and his rival Nikki Haley got 43.7 percent.

Nikki Haley, Donald Trump’s only opponent in the Republican Party for the presidential nomination, has expressed her determination to continue the competition despite the recent defeat.
