Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump and rival Nikki Haley sqaured off in 15 states' primary contests to mark Super Tuesday, where the former president won nearly every race.
Haley, former South Carolina governor and United Nations ambassador, has been substantially trailing Trump in the polls, and heading into Tuesday's voting, the former president had won 273 delegates in the Republican primary race, compared to Haley's 43. A GOP candidate needs 1,215 to win the party's nomination for November's presidential election.
The former governor, Trump's only serious challenger left in the Republican race, secured her first primary win on Sunday, winning the Washington, D.C., election. Polls had indicated that Trump would likely see substantial victories in all 15 GOP primary races Tuesday, with some surveys suggesting he could receive around 75 percent of the votes in some states.
