Dems and GOP to Secure Nominees on Super Tuesday

HeadlineMar 07, 2000

For Democrats and Republicans alike, today is a defining day in the race for the White House. Super Tuesday is the busiest day yet of the primary season with voting in almost every region of the nation. Republicans vote in 13 states with 613 delegates at stake. Voters in 15 states will award 1,315 Democratic delegates. Both parties will award more than half the delegates necessary to secure a nomination. While Republican John McCain and Democrat Bill Bradley are hoping for upset victories, front runners Al Gore and George W. Bush hope decisive victories will gain them their respective party’s nomination.
