Conclusion
This concludes ‘Super Tuesday’. What we have learnt is that Donald Trump with seven states in his pocket isn’t the Republican nominee...yet. However, the New York Billionaire and Democratic candidate Hilary Clinton scored big tonight.
Bernie Sanders trailed in second place with four states to his win, followed by Ted Cruz with his big three. Marco Rubio had a rough night by winning one state. Kasich came in second in Vermont. Carson was unfortunately in contention nowhere. Kasich called on Rubio to drop out and Carson said: “I will remain.”
The next March primaries will be held on 5 , 8, 12, 15, and 22.
