Former President Donald Trump will win the Arkansas Republican primary, CNN projects, carrying a state where his former White House press secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, is now governor.
Trump defeated former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley in a state where 40 delegates to the Republican National Convention were on the line.
It was another win in a contested Arkansas GOP presidential primary for Trump, who in 2016 narrowly defeated Texas Sen. Ted Cruz by just 2.3 percentage points.
Republicans are strongly favored to carry Arkansas’ 6 electoral college votes in November — something every GOP presidential nominee has done since home-state former Democratic governor Bill Clinton was last on the ballot in 1996.
