Former President Donald Trump won the Indiana GOP presidential primary with a significant lead, securing 78.3% of the votes with 70% of precincts reporting, amounting to 375,000 votes. His closest competitor, Nikki Haley, who had withdrawn from the race over two months ago, still managed to garner 21.7% of the vote, which translates to 103,000 votes. Despite her withdrawal, Haley's unexpected vote count indicates a notable level of dissent within the party. Additionally, Trump secured 52 of the 58 available delegates in Indiana.
