Haley won 1 in 5 Indiana Republican voters in the presidential primary. She left the race in March
The ghost of Nikki Haley’s presidential campaign is ringing up significant support in state primaries despite her withdrawal from the race in March shortly before Donald Trump had clinched the Republican nomination. The backing for Haley — most recently in Indiana, where she grabbed more than 21% of the votes on Tuesday — signals persistent discontent among party voters with the former president.

Republican Congressmen introduce bill that would protect NCAA and conferences from legal attacks
Two Republican Congressmen introduced a bill Wednesday that would provide the NCAA, college conferences and member schools federal protection from legal challenges that stand in the way of their ability to govern college sports. The Protect The Ball Act is sponsored by Rep. Russell Fry (R-S.C.) and Rep. Barry Moore (R-Ala.) and is intended to provide legal safe harbor for the entities that run college sport, which has been under siege from antitrust lawsuits. Fry and Moore are members of the House Judiciary Committee. The NCAA and Power Four conferences are considering a settlement agreement that could cost billions.
