Nikki Haley faces criticism after omitting 'slavery' as a cause of the Civil War during a New Hampshire town hall. Responding to the voter's question, Haley counters, "What do you want me to say?" Later, she acknowledges on a radio channel that the Civil War was indeed about slavery, stating, "Of course the Civil War was about slavery, that's the easy part. I am from the South." South Carolina's Ordinance of Secession directly links secession to increasing hostility toward slavery. Republican candidate Vivek Ramaswamy mocks Haley on X, suggesting she mistook the voter for a donor. Video circulates with Florida Governor DeSantis' campaign captioning it "Yikes," while Democratic Rep. Dean Phillips asserts, "The Civil War was about slavery. Period."
