Trump Wins Indiana GOP Primary with 78.3%; Haley Surprises with 21.7% Despite Campaign Suspension

In the Indiana Republican primary, with over 95% of votes counted, Donald Trump emerged victorious with 78.3% of the vote, totaling 375,000 votes, while his opponent Nikki Haley, who had withdrawn from the race two months earlier, surprisingly garnered 21.7% or 103,000 votes. Despite her campaign's suspension, Haley's significant vote share, particularly in Hamilton County where she captured 34% of the vote, and 66% in Bartholomew County, indicates a potential challenge for Trump among suburban GOP voters. This unexpected support for Haley, described as a 'zombie campaign', has raised concerns about Trump's standing within his own base, especially given her strong performance in a state typically dominated by Trump.
