Former President Donald Trump has picked up another win in the contest for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024.
The Republican Party of the Virgin Islands declared on Thursday that Trump had won the GOP caucus in the territory.
The Virgin Islands contest, open only to Republican voters, was for nine delegates to the GOP presidential nominating convention this summer.
The candidates who were still in the running for the nomination were Trump, former U.N. ambassador and two-term governor of South Carolina Nikki Haley, and four others who withdrew from the 2024 contest.
There was ranked-choice voting in the caucus. Voters ranked their choices, and the ranked-choice method would have been implemented if no candidate received a majority of the total votes.
