WASHINGTON (TND) — Nikki Haley has issued a cease and desist to a group urging her supporters to back Vice President Kamala Harris.
The “Haley Voters for Harris” PAC has pushed the former Republican presidential candidate's supporters to help Harris win the election. Haley said Tuesday the political action committee is using her name for deceitful purposes.
“Kamala Harris and I are total opposites on every issue. Any attempt to use my name to support her or her agenda is deceptive and wrong," she said.
"Haley Voters for Harris" said in a statement Tuesday it will review the cease and desist order once it is received, noting its rights to engage with voters "will not be suppressed." The PAC also claimed in a social media post Monday it is not affiliated with the former South Carolina governor.
We also do not and never claimed to speak for Nikki Haley. We are reaching out to a subset of Haley voters who will vote their consciences,” the group wrote on X.Haley endorsed former President Donald Trump at the Republican National Convention last week. She suggested even people who don’t agree with Trump “100% of the time” should vote for him anyway.

"My message to them is simple: You don’t have to agree with Trump 100% of the time to vote for him,” she said. “Take it from me. I haven’t always agreed with President Trump, but we agree more often than we disagree.”
In May, Haley asserted Trump had to earn the votes of those who didn’t support him. “Haley Voters for Harris” claimed recently he has not, as well as disrespected Haley.
“He has done nothing to do so - constantly deriding her - and picked Vance as his running mate,” the group noted.
