Voters in South Carolina are heading to the polls for the Republican presidential primary in the battle between Donald Trump and Nikki Haley.

Haley is hoping to avoid a crushing defeat to the frontrunner Trump in her home state as she vows to keep fighting in the White House race.

Trump is 30 points ahead in the polls and is already looking ahead to the November election and a likely rematch against Joe Biden.

He will take the stage at CPAC in Washington D.C. at noon before flying south for what he expects to be a victory party. 

Haley has vowed to stay in the race no matter the result, but an embarrassing defeat on home turf could be the final nail in the coffin for her campaign.

She has ramped up her attacks on the former president, 77, and has compared him to Joe Biden with his gaffes.
