Super Tuesday

Super Tuesday is The biggest day in Primaries and Caucases. 20+ states Choose their Candidates. One on the republican side and one on the Democartic side. The reason this day is so important is that it can decide which candidates stay and which ones go. This is gong to be and interesting race on the Democratic side considering two special groups are still in the race. Sen. Hillary Clinton of New York. And Sen. Barak Obama of Illinois. On the repulican Side is Sen John McCain of Arizona, Gov. Mike Huckabee of Arkansas, And Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts.

All of the candidates are very certain that they will win no matter how behind they are. One thing we have learned so far this year in politics is that Polls can not be trusted. Especially in the democratic race.


On the democratic side Sen. Clinton has gotten states like California, her home state of New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Arizona. Sen. Obama has Georgia, Connecticut, Utah, Minnesota, Colorado, Illinois, Kansas, Missouri.

Political strategy: Clinton did not get as many states as Obama but Clinton got the delegate rich states. That will help to be chosen as the democratic nominee.

On the republican side Sen. McCain won California, Missouri, Conneticut, his home state of Arizona, Illinois, New York, Oklahoma,New Jersey and Delaware. Gov. Hukabee has received Georgia, Arkansas, Tennesee, Alabama, and West Virginia. Gov. Romney received Utah, Miinesota, Massachusettes, Colorado, Montan , and North Dakota.

All of the candidates are still going to run as they said on their Super Tuesday Speeches. Even Mitt Romney, who is falling behind. Is still saying he is going through to the end.
