She has money in the bank, a strategy to expand the Republican base and a new unabashedly adversarial stance toward former President Donald Trump. Yet she is coming up against tough electoral math, and a Republican base that seems determined to nominate Trump for the third time. Mike Noble, a pollster who works in Arizona and Nevada, noted that about seven in 10 Republicans nationally say they don’t believe that Trump actually lost in 2020. To those voters, Trump is “a two-time winner now going for a three-peat,” Noble said. “Basically you’re holding out for a Hail Mary.” To pull out an unlikely victory, Haley, the former South Carolina governor and United Nations ambassador, must secure the support of 1,215 G.O.P. delegates — a count that, as of now, stands at [33 for Trump and 17 for Haley](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnppIqP0T_aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vaW50ZXJhY3RpdmUvMjAyNC91cy9lbGVjdGlvbnMvcmVwdWJsaWNhbi1wcmltYXJ5LWRlbGVnYXRlcy10cmFja2VyLWNhbGVuZGFyLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTYmZW1jPWVkaXRfY25fMjAyNDAyMDcmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTE0NTg4Jm5sPW9uLXBvbGl0aWNzJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xNTc1NzAmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmW6Kg3EZWOOxjtSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~). She is looking to build up her total in 13 G.O.P. primary states that are not limited to registered Republicans, including South Carolina, her home turf. But that strategy fell flat in New Hampshire, and Trump maintains a firm grasp on the Republican base nationwide, including in the delegate-rich states of California, Florida and Texas. Trump’s allies have also [worked behind the scenes](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnppIqP0TiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8xMC8xNC91cy9wb2xpdGljcy90cnVtcC1kZWxlZ2F0ZS1zdHJhdGVneS5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU2JmVtYz1lZGl0X2NuXzIwMjQwMjA3Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTExNDU4OCZubD1vbi1wb2xpdGljcyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTU3NTcwJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpluioNxGVjjsY7Uht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~) to twist primary and delegate rules in his favor.

Before a single vote was cast, Nevada Republicans rendered the primary moot when they decided that only the results of the caucus on Thursday would determine the allotment of the state’s 26 delegates, a move meant to benefit Trump. His supporters in Nevada, including the governor, had pushed selecting “None of These Candidates” on the primary ballot as a protest vote against Haley. In a final twist, Haley will technically win the contest — state election law says “only votes cast for the named candidates shall be counted” — but the confounding result will deny her even a symbolic victory. Haley told Fox Business on Wednesday that her campaign “always knew Nevada was a scam.” “Trump had it rigged from the very beginning,” she added. In a social media post, [Haley unloaded on her own party](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnppIqP0TiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wMi8wNy91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9oYWxleS10cnVtcC1yZXB1YmxpY2Fucy5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU2JmVtYz1lZGl0X2NuXzIwMjQwMjA3Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTExNDU4OCZubD1vbi1wb2xpdGljcyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTU3NTcwJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpluioNxGVjjsY7Uht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~), painting the tumultuous day in Nevada and on Capitol Hill not as bad for her, but for Republicans.

At recent campaign events in South Carolina, Haley has appeared with a fresh combative approach and a new walkout song: “I Love Rock ’n’ Roll,” performed by Joan Jett & the Blackhearts. She has aggressively been attacking the former president on his mental acuity, his refusal to debate and his legal problems as he fights 91 felony indictments. “He has spent $50 million of campaign donations on legal fees,” she said this week in Spartanburg, S.C. “And he with his own mouth said he’s going to be in a courtroom more time than he is going to be able to campaign.” Those legal travails may provide one of Haley’s only plausible routes to victory, because the straightforward voter math is daunting. Forty-eight states have yet to hold their caucuses or primaries. Some will award state delegates proportionally. But the majority will host total or partial winner-take-all contests, which tend to advantage the front-runner.

Haley is heavily courting independents and college-educated and new Republican voters. But Ruth Igielnik, a polling editor at The Times, points to a CNN poll from last week that showed Haley’s weakness with her own base: She had support from only 29 percent of college-educated Republicans nationally. Trump had 55 percent of the same demographic. Matt Grossmann, director of Michigan State University’s Institute for Public Policy and Social Research, was also dubious. “They have identified the most plausible among implausible roads,” he said of the Haley team.

They argue Trump could still stumble, especially facing a federal trial on charges of conspiring to overturn the results of the 2020 election. The trial was expected to start on March 4, one day before Super Tuesday. It has since been [postponed indefinitely](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnppIqP0TqaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wMi8wMi91cy9wb2xpdGljcy90cnVtcC10cmlhbC1lbGVjdGlvbi1kYXRlLWRlbGF5Lmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTYmZW1jPWVkaXRfY25fMjAyNDAyMDcmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTE0NTg4Jm5sPW9uLXBvbGl0aWNzJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xNTc1NzAmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmW6Kg3EZWOOxjtSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~). Republican strategists see Haley’s bid now as a principled but futile stand against Mr. Trump, or as wish fulfillment for her donors or a launchpad for a future run. Ryan Williams, a Republican strategist and a former aide to Mitt Romney who has long known Haley, said Trump’s legal problems had only made him grow stronger. “There is not a desire among the Republican electorate to go in a different direction,” he said. “Nikki Haley’s candidacy is more of a statement candidacy.” ~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnppIqP4QZAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tL3ZpZGVvL3BvbGl0aWNzP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTAmY2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTYmZW1jPWVkaXRfY25fMjAyNDAyMDcmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMTQ1ODgmbmw9b24tcG9saXRpY3MmcmVnaV9pZD0wJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0wJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTU3NTcwJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1iZWEwNmQwMzZmNTUwMzQzNjNhNzYwZmI1NTliZWZlNyZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmW6Kg3EZWOOxjtSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~ Travis Dove for The New York Times Nikki Haley and her allies are betting that voters in South Carolina — a state where she was born and raised, and led as governor — will remember her high approval ratings and achievements there.
