Republican presidential prospect Nikki Haley speaks in Raleigh ahead of Super Tuesday

RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) - - Former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley talked to supporters at Union Station in Raleigh Saturday afternoon.

A large crowd collected inside excited to hear Haley speak. And while she's yet to win a contest up until now this primary season-- she's confident as we head into Super Tuesday voting.

Former U.N. Ambassador Haley made a campaign stop in Raleigh this afternoon.

" We defeated a dozen of the fellas, I just have one more I've got ta reach," she informed an ecstatic crowd.

Haley is the last candidate standing in an increasingly tough attempt to dethrone previous President Trump from protecting the Republican election.

" This is not an anti-Trump motion, this is a pro-America motion, where they are stating this is about the fact that somebody needs to be talking about financial discipline, paying down the financial obligation, making certain we get our economy back on track," Haley said.
