Former President Donald Trump secured victories in the internal party elections held in Missouri,🌼 Michigan, and Idaho on Saturday, as reported by US media. These wins add to his momentum in the race fꦛor the Republican Party's presidential nomination, with "Super Tuesday" just around the corner, where voters in 15 states will choose their preferred candidates.
In Missouri, Trump dominated the internal elections, winning every county caucus in the state against his main opponent, former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley. The voting process allowed ෴anyone expressing allegiance to the Missouri Republican Party to participate.
Michigan witnessed around 2,000 party activists voting in a caucus convention, where Trump secured all 39 delegates. This limited vote followed internal party chaoꦺs, including allegations of overspending and mismanagement.
Similarly, in Idaho, Trump emer𝄹ged victorious in Republican caucuses, according to proღjections by NBC and ABC.
The wins position Trump favorably for the upcoming party convention in July, where he aims to clinch the Republican nomination. As the race progresses, it appears increasingly likely that he will face President Joe Biden in the November elections, marking a rematch of their 2020 sh🍸owdown. Despite Trump's formidable influence, the internal elections in some states highlighted existing rifts and tensions within the party.
Nikki Haley, Trump's main opponent, has been actively campaigning ahead of Super Tuesday, 🌠attempting to make a challenging case against the perceived inevitability of Trump's nomination.
