[katharnak]

Nikki Randhawa Haley is all set to create history by becoming the first women Governor of South Carolina, thus becoming only the second Indian-American to occupy the prestigious post in America after her fellow Republican Bobby Piyush Jindal of Lousiana.

Haley, 38, daughter of Sikh immigrants is leading her Democratic Rival Vincent Sheheen by more than 10 points for the South Carolina governorship on the eve of November 2 mid-term elections, according to opinion polls.

RealClearPolitics.Com, which keeps a tab on all the election campaigns and opinion polls, said her race may go down as one of the tawdriest races in history.

Haley got a big boost to her electoral campaign when The Post and Courier the major South Carolina newspaper praised her on the eve of the November 2 elections.

"Republic Haley has been overcoming odds all her life, as the daughter of Indian immigrants in small-town South Carolina, and as a virtually unknown challenger for the House seat held by the then-longest-serving member of the Legislature," the newspaper said in an editorial.

She grew up working in her family's business, where she learned an enduring lesson: "How hard it was to make a dollar, and how easy it was for the government to take it. Despite the ugly realities of campaigning, she remains optimistic about serving as South Carolina’s chief executive," the editorial said. (PTI)
