(Web Desk) - Donald Trump is projected to win the South Carolina Republican primary, US media project - continuing his march towards the nomination
The former president defeated his last remaining challenger Nikki Haley, who is a former governor of South Carolina
It is the fourth consecutive win for Trump in the marathon state-by-state contest, but Haley has vowed to stay in the race
Trump told his victory party it was a "fantastic evening" - and he was ready to "look Joe Biden right in the eye and say, 'Joe, you're fired”.
Americans will vote in November and the presidential contest is looking increasingly likely to be a Trump-Biden rematch
Speaking at his victory rally earlier, Trump said he'd never seen a "spirit" like this - and that he'd also never seen the Republican Party so "unified".
There's been a telling change in the TV channel at Nikki Haley's election night party - the right-wing Fox News has been turned off, and CNN has been turned on.
Her supporters are closely tuned in, cheering every time a commentator says anything positive about their candidate.
At one point, an anchor says Haley should continue on "as long as she has the money".
The crowd here responds loudly, shouting "she does!" and the room erupts in applause. We're still waiting to hear from Haley.
We’re outside the Trump victory rally in Columbia which has just ended. Karen came here all the way from Florida to see Donald Trump. She's also done some telephone canvassing for him.
She says she’s not concerned about the former president’s legal troubles: "He could run the government under house arrest from the White House and we wouldn’t care. We love him."
