President Donald Trump is set to dominate most, if not all, of the primary states up for grabs on Super Tuesday, and it’s not likely to be a razor-thin contest.
On Tuesday, 15 states will hold Republican primary elections, representing 865 delegates that are available to win. According to Reuters, 1,215 delegates are needed to win the Republican nomination, so the delegates up for grabs on Tuesday would essentially seal the deal on President Trump’s nomination since he has won every state primary election so far.
The states that will be voting on Tuesday are:
- California
- Texas
- Alabama
- Arkansas
- Colorado
- Maine
- Massachusetts
- North Carolina
- Oklahoma
- Minnesota
- Tennessee
- Virginia
- Vermont
- Alaska (caucus)
- Utah (caucus)
President Trump is holding wide leads in the nation’s primary state contests.
For example, in California, Trump is leading with 73 percent of support among Republican primary voters compared to Nikki Haley’s 20 percent, giving the president a huge 51-point lead. He is also leading in states like Texas (+56 points), Arkansas (+63 points), Maine (+49 points), and Oklahoma (+75), via data from Decision Desk HQ/The Hill.
During a town hall exclusive with RSBN, President Trump noted that he was on track to potentially win by historic numbers in the 2024 Super Tuesday lineup.
He explained, “We’ve won everything [in the primary] in record numbers. Tomorrow, we could very well win every state in RECORD numbers…it’s so important because we have to send a signal.”
Super Tuesday will all but guarantee Trump’s position as the prospective Republican presidential nominee, setting him on a path to compete in the 2024 general election against the Democrat machine.
Trump concluded, “If the projections are right, we’re going to win by a lot.”
