The results of the Republican primary battle in Iowa on Monday kept one Indian-American candidate, former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley, in the race for the party's nomination and led to the exit of the other candidate, entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy.
With 19% of the votes, Haley, 51, finished third in the race behind Florida governor Ron DeSantis (21%) in a contest where former president Donald Trump appears to have locked in the nomination already, taking over half the votes (51%) in the first primary. Ramaswamy dropped out of the race after he garnered a dismal 7.7% of the votes.
Haley's political future now appears to rest either on the consolidation of the anti-Trump and non-Trump votes or the collapse of Trump's candidacy itself. In contrast, Ramaswamy's political future rests on Trump's success after a campaign that broadly endorsed the former president's political positions. On Monday, he formally endorsed Trump after exiting the race.
