Trump vs Biden Rematch Looms: Super Tuesday Sets Stage for November Showdown
Share:

The US presidential elections scheduled for November this year will feature a rematch between former President Donald Trump and incumbent President Joe Biden. The results from Super Tuesday, where a significant portion of delegates are up for grabs, have been announced following what was described as an "unsurprising" contest.

On Super Tuesday, voters from 15 states and one US territory cast their ballots. These states, including the crucial battlegrounds of California and Texas, offered a substantial 70% of the delegates needed for a candidate to secure the nomination. However, official nomination won't occur until the party conventions later this summer.

Here's the latest from the Super Tuesday polls:

Nikki Haley is set to suspend her presidential campaign, leaving Donald Trump as the last major Republican candidate, according to sources cited by the Associated Press.

Donald Trump, vying for a return to the White House, secured victories in 14 out of 15 primary elections in the Super Tuesday states, including key wins in Texas and California. However, his hopes for a clean sweep were dashed by Nikki Haley's unexpected triumph in Vermont. Both Trump and Haley emerge as the Republican frontrunners for the 2024 presidential race.

Trump aims to secure the nomination by mid-March, shifting his focus towards a potential rematch with President Joe Biden in the general election. Biden, who defeated Trump in 2020, is now seeking re-election.

On the Democratic side, as anticipated, President Joe Biden emerged victorious in all 15 states. However, he faced an upset loss to relatively unknown challenger Jason Palmer in American Samoa, as reported by AFP.
Biden's tally now stands at 19 wins out of 20 contests, significantly increasing his delegate count. He appears on track to gather enough delegates to clinch the nomination by March 19.

According to polling averages from RealClearPolitics, Trump currently holds a two-point lead over Biden in a head-to-head matchup for the November election. However, a recent Bloomberg News/Morning Consult survey among swing state voters revealed Biden trailing in key battleground states crucial for victory.

Following his Super Tuesday victories over rival Nikki Haley, Donald Trump expressed satisfaction with the results, calling March 5th a "great evening" in an exclusive interview with Fox News. He emphasized the significance of representing not only the Republican Party but the entire nation in restoring its health and prosperity.

In the aftermath of the Super Tuesday primaries, a campaign memo released by the Biden team outlined strategies to regain momentum and defeat Trump in the presidential race, as reported by Bloomberg. The memo highlighted the importance of rallying disaffected voters opposed to Trump, viewing them as pivotal in turning the tide in November's general election.
