AFP Action on January 10, 2024

No Stronger Choice than Haley if Republicans Want to Win Back Washington

Arlington, VA – Americans for Prosperity Action Senior Advisor Emily Seidel made the following statement after tonight’s Republican presidential debate:

“Nikki Haley showed voters tonight why she is hands down the strongest candidate Republicans could put up against Joe Biden in November. She crushes Biden by double digits in a head-to-head matchup and beats him in the critical swing states that Trump lost. Nikki is a conservative fighter with a bold vision to turn our country around. She is the only candidate in the race who would boost Republicans up and down the ballot, and deliver an election that sweeps strong leaders into the House and Senate to address our country’s biggest challenges.

“Republicans cannot afford to gamble with our country’s future and risk another four years of Biden. If Republicans want to take back the White House, get our country back on the path to prosperity, and win again, there is no stronger choice than Nikki Haley.”

Since endorsing Haley for President, AFP Action has reached out to more than 750,000 voters and is putting to use the knowledge acquired from interviews with more than 6 million Republican primary voters through the summer and fall of 2023 to build support for Nikki Haley. The energy and enthusiasm AFP Action is hearing at the doors has translated into clear momentum for Haley in the polls.

With the criminal trials and the negative baggage of Donald Trump, our country can’t risk four more years of Joe Biden.
