Former President Donald Trump is making waves in the 2024 Republican presidential nomination race, with a strong showing on Super Tuesday. The Fox News Decision Desk projected Trump as the winner in multiple states, including North Carolina, Virginia, Texas, and more. While Trump won’t clinch the nomination on Tuesday, he is on track to secure the majority of the 854 Republican delegates up for grabs.
Trump’s main rival, former U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley, still has a shot at winning one contest on Super Tuesday, with Vermont’s GOP primary still too close to call. Despite the competition, Trump is gaining momentum and looking ahead to a potential general election rematch with President Biden.
Biden, on the other hand, is dominating the Super Tuesday Democratic nominating contests, with victories in states like Vermont, Virginia, and Texas. However, he did suffer a setback with a loss in American Samoa to longshot candidate Jason Palmer.
As the race heats up, Trump’s campaign is confident that he will secure the nomination by mid-March, with more large states like Georgia, Florida, and Ohio holding primaries in the coming weeks. Stay tuned for more updates from the 2024 campaign trail.
