Presidential candidate Nikki Haley has received endorsements from two Republican senators ahead of Super Tuesday.
On Friday, both Senator Susan Collins (R-Maine.) and Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska.) endorsed Haley (R-S.C.) in the 2024 GOP presidential election.
They have become the first two sitting Republican senators to support Haley in her 2024 presidential bid.
Haley took to social media to celebrate the endorsements from the senators.
“Two strong senators in one day. I’m grateful to have their support. Thank you Sens. @senatorcollins and @lisamurkowski. We have a country to save!” she said.
Haley has vowed to stay in the race, arguing Trump won’t be able to defeat President Biden in the general election.
“Donald Trump will not win the general election,” Haley told Jake Tapper on CNN’s “The Lead.” “You can have him win any primary you want — he will not win a general election. We will have a female president of the United States; it will either be me or it will be [Vice President] Harris.”
“But if Donald Trump is the nominee, you can mark my words, he will not win a general election,” Haley added.
Both Maine and Alaska are set to vote on Super Tuesday.
Super Tuesday is scheduled for this upcoming week which will be the biggest voting day of the year outside of the November election, with 16 states and American Samoa holding primaries.

Why are the endorsements from Collins and Murkowski significant for Haley’s campaign within the Republican party?
Republican Senators Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska have endorsed Nikki Haley in the 2024 GOP presidential election. This marks the first time that sitting Republican senators have publicly supported Haley in her bid for the presidency.
Haley, a presidential candidate, took to social media to express her gratitude for the endorsements. She tweeted, “Two strong senators in one day. I’m grateful to have their support. Thank you Sens. @senatorcollins and @lisamurkowski. We have a country to save!”
The endorsements from Collins and Murkowski are significant as they signify growing support for Haley within the Republican party. Both senators are seen as moderate Republicans and their endorsement could help Haley in appealing to a broader voter base.
Haley has been vocal about her intention to stay in the race, despite former President Donald Trump’s potential comeback. She has argued that Trump will not be able to defeat President Biden in the general election. Haley stated, “Donald Trump will not win the general election. We will have a female president of the United States; it will either be me or it will be [Vice President] Harris.”
The endorsements from Collins and Murkowski come ahead of Super Tuesday, the day when multiple states hold their primaries. This year, Super Tuesday is expected to be a significant day in the Republican primary race, with 16 states participating.
Super Tuesday is seen as a crucial moment in the presidential election cycle as it has the largest number of delegates up for grabs outside of the November election. Candidates often rely on strong performances on Super Tuesday to gain momentum and secure their party’s nomination.
With the endorsements from Collins and Murkowski, Haley’s campaign is likely to gain a boost as she seeks to solidify her position as a top contender in the 2024 GOP presidential race.
