MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) — Donald Trump surrounded himself with leaders from Nikki Haley’s home state in a show of strength before Tuesday’s New Hampshire primary. Trump was joined at a rally at the NHU Arena in Manchester Saturday night by South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster, the state’s lieutenant governor and a slew of other senior officials, including the state’s attorney general, treasurer and House speaker. The statewide officials, along with U.S. Reps. Joe Wilson, William Timmons and Russell Fry, appeared on stage with Trump. The appearances are yet another blow against Haley, who is hoping her appeal among independent and unaffiliated voters will propel her to a strong enough finish in New Hampshire.
