A number of donors are switching to supporting former US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley in the Republican presidential nomination race. His campaign has gained momentum and he is likely to attract support from other major donors.
Haley has jumped to second place in multiple primary election polls. His performance in the debate was praised by Ken Griffin, founder of hedge fund management company Citadel. Ms. Haley has ridden this wave with a string of fundraising events in recent weeks, resulting in several donors switching to her support.

A Bloomberg News analysis of filings with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) found that 250 people, including billionaire Harlan Crowe and Bruce Kovner, chairman of Caxton Alternative Management, donated to Haley. In total, he has provided $218,000 (approximately 33 million yen), most of which came after he rapidly increased his approval ratings during the first debate in late August.
