With Super Tuesday approaching, the US Presidential Election is getting increasingly heated, and all eyes are on the states that are prepared to cast ballots.
The day of the primary election cycle when the majority of states cast their ballots is known as Super Tuesday.
Super Tuesday is typically when one-third of all delegates to the Republican or Democratic conventions are given; the precise amount changes from year to year.
It will provide 874 of the 2,429 Republican delegates this year, or 36 percent. One thousand and fifty-one percent of the amount will have been used up by the end of Super Tuesday.
It should be noted that, barring any huge, significant shocks, it is obvious that Donald Trump and Joe Biden will represent the Republicans and the Democrats in the presidential race, respectively, thus this Super Tuesday does not feel like such a big issue.
Donald Trump wins primary by largest margin in which state?
What states are voting on Super Tuesday, and when is it?
Super Tuesday is scheduled for March 5, 2024. It has happened in February on occasion, but it usually happens in March.
15 states—Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, and Virginia—will cast ballots on Super Tuesday this year. American Samoa is one territory that will cast a ballot.
The Democratic contest in Iowa, which is being conducted by mail over a few weeks, will also reveal its results to us. (The Iowa Republican Caucuses took place in the middle of January.)
It wasn’t until the 1970s that the term “Super Tuesday” gained traction, and it was frequently reserved for the final round of primaries.
