Former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley has confirmed she will not be running for president in the 2028 election. Speaking on CNBC on Wednesday, Haley, who participated in the 2024 Republican presidential primary, ruled out a presidential bid for the next election cycle.
“I am not running in 2028, but I will continue to talk about the things I care about,” Haley said. “I will continue to push good policy. I will continue to support good candidates.”

When asked about potential GOP candidates for 2028, Haley did not name any specific individuals. “It’s not what anybody says, we need to watch what they do. That’s what I’ll be watching for,” she stated.
Haley also expressed that it is too early to predict who might lead the Republican Party in two years. On the Republican side, Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis have been considered potential candidates for 2028, though none have officially announced their intentions.
For the Democratic Party, speculation has centered on California Governor Gavin Newsom, New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and former Vice President Kamala Harris as possible candidates for the 2028 election.
Haley’s decision not to run comes as the political landscape continues to shift, with multiple potential candidates emerging on both sides of the aisle. Her focus remains on policy advocacy and supporting candidates she believes will uphold her values.
