Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) plans to cast a write-in vote for former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley for president instead of voting for the party’s presumptive nominee, former President Donald Trump.
The Maine senator said she plans to still support Haley in November, speaking to WGME, the local CBS affiliate in Portland, Maine.
“I will not be voting for either candidate. I’m going to write in Nikki Haley’s name,” Collins said during the interview. “She’s my favorite candidate and I think she would do a great job. She’s my choice and that’s how I’m going to express it.”
“Ultimately, I have to do what is right. I publicly endorsed Nikki Haley, and I very much wanted her to win,” she added.
