Donald Trump rallied his supporters ahead of South Carolina's Republican primary, hoping to deliver another blow to rival Nikki Haley, this time in her home state.
"Tomorrow you will make one of the most important choices of your entire life," the former president and current candidate told supporters during a speech in Rock Hill.
Haley lost the first four contests to Trump in the GOP race to pick a nominee for November's general election. Despite being a popular governor in the southeastern state, she was trailing in polls by about 30 points before the vote, CNN reported.
Underscoring his confidence, Trump, 77, told supporters on the eve of the vote: "To be honest, we're not that worried."
Polling stations open at 7:00 a.m. local time and close 12 hours later.
Haley, a more traditional conservative, urged voters to reject the former president's "chaos," although that message has not won over voters in polls so far in Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Haley also called for a "new generation leader who focuses on the solutions of the future instead of all the problems of the past."
However, Trump is already preparing a rematch against Joe Biden.
"We're going to win this state and then we're going to tell the sly Joe Biden: You're fired," said the former president. /BGNES
