Former U.S. United Nations ambassador Nikki Haley, now a Republican candidate contending for the party's nomination for president this year, got 294,000 votes in the Michigan primary this week.
But President Donald Trump got more than 750,000 and that has prompted Haley to concede that it is "very possible" that her party has moved toward Trump.
Dana Bash, a personality at CNN, asked her, "Isn't it possible the party has moved, and the party is about Donald Trump and not what you're describing, which might be the party of yesterday?"
"It is very possible," Haley admitted.
"What I am saying to my Republican Party family is, we are in a ship with a hole in it, and we can either go down with the ship and watch the country go socialist left, or we can see that we need to take the life raft and move in a new direction."
Haley explained she is staying in the race and is taking the results one state at a time.
"I'm doing what I believe 70% of Americans want me to do," she explained in an interview with the Wall Street Journal.
Trump, so far, has dominated every GOP primary race that has been held.
At Off the Press, a report explained the "political climate" now is for "former President Donald Trump" as he "continues to assert his influence over early GOP primary contests."
The report said she is maintaining a "defiance of an accelerating news cycle," remaining "measured."
"We've only seen a handful of states cast their ballots," she told CNN.
