Millions of Americans in 15 states and one territory went to the polls today for primary contests that will set the stage for November’s elections. We call it Super Tuesday because it’s the busiest voting day before November, and typically it plays a central role in the presidential nomination process.
This year, however, is different. President Biden faces no major challengers, making him a lock to win every Democratic primary. Donald Trump is competing only against the dwindling campaign of Nikki Haley, whom he is expected to defeat in most or all of today’s contests.

So: no surprises out of Super Tuesday, really. (Haley eked out a win in Vermont, but that was it).
The 2024 presidential election that nobody had wanted (a Biden-Trump rematch) is still on track for November.
