Haley Campaign Press Release - Nikki Haley's Incredible, Jam-Packed, Very Good, Some-Might-Say-Great Week
CHARLESTON, S.C. – While other potential candidates are flying around the world or quietly sitting on the sidelines, presidential candidate Nikki Haley had a jam-packed week, talking to voters on big issues. Her week included:
- A major policy speech on abortion
- Saying what many are thinking but won't say out loud about Joe Biden's reelection launch
- A 14-stop swing through New Hampshire, including three town halls and meet-and-greets with hundreds of voters
- Oh, and she also managed to rile the not-yet-existing Ron DeSantis campaign
Arlington, Va. – Major Policy Speech on Abortion
Wall Street Journal: "...the best effort we've heard so far is Nikki Haley's speech on Tuesday combining the moral case against abortion with a politics of persuasion and humility." (Wall Street Journal, 4/25/23)
Washington Post's Henry Olsen: "The declared candidates so far have offered sharply different approaches. Former U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley's is easily the best." (Washington Post, 4/27/23)
Townhall's Katie Pavlich: "This is the way. Republicans can either let the extreme left, which believes in zero restrictions/abortion until birth (70% of the country agrees on limits at 15 weeks) define them on the pro-life issue or they can define themselves and win the argument as @NikkiHaley did today." (Twitter, 4/25/23) Washington Examiner's Tiana Lowe: "In this case, men really should listen to the one woman in the arena willing to explain how to win what could otherwise prove the GOP's greatest liability in the 2024 election." (Washington Examiner, 4/26/23)
Nikki Haley vs. Joe Biden
Nikki Haley on Fox News: "If you vote for Joe Biden, you really are counting on a president Harris. The idea that he would make it until 86 years old, is not something I think is likely. Which is why I've continued to say we need to have mental competency tests starting at seventy five..." (Fox News, 4/26/23) Washington Examiner:Nikki Haley warns Harris will take over if Biden doesn't 'make it until 86' (Washington Examiner, 4/28/23)
NewsMax: "We are concerned (about Joe Biden's age), we are concerned when you see this level of decline...Nikki Haley is really just saying what we are all wondering." (NewsMax, 4/27/23)
Bedford, N.H. – Law Enforcement Roundtable and Town Hall
The Boston Globe's Steven Porter: "The first of Nikki Haley's three #fitn town halls this week is underway now in Bedford. This is her third trip to N.H. since announcing her bid for the GOP presidential nomination. #nhpolitics" (Twitter, 4/26/23)
New Hampshire State Rep. Joe Sweeney: "Great job by @TeamHaley with a standing room only Town Hall at Murphy's in Bedford. Hundreds here on a Wednesday night *while the Bruins play* to hear from @NikkiHaley. The @NHGOP #FITN Primary is alive and well! #NHPolitics" (Twitter, 4/26/23)
The Daily Beast's Jake Lahut: "Another thing about the Haley stump is it has its own kind of periodization going on. Example: after ticking through a bunch of policy items, she has the crowd give the cops in the room a round of applause, then a standing O. People are having a good time, not bored." (Twitter, 4/26/23)
Henniker, N.H. – Cafes, Diners, a Town Hall, and Voters
Brattleboro Reformer: "...the former ambassador to the United Nations and former governor of South Carolina said at a meet and greet at Tempesta's Restaurant in Keene, where she spent nearly 20 minutes giving a speech and about 15 minutes answering questions." (Brattleboro Reformer, 4/27/23)

(Twitter, 4/28/23) Rick Wiley: ".?@NikkiHaley? taking the stage at the Laconia American Legion. Doing it the New Hampshire way." (Twitter, 4/28/23)
