President Donald Trump secured enough delegates Tuesday night to become the Republican Party’s presumptive nominee after earning victories in three additional states.
Trump collected the remaining delegates needed to reach the party’s 1,215-delegate threshold just one week after he swept the Super Tuesday races, the Associated Press reported. Trump won 40 delegates in Mississippi, 56 in Georgia and 43 in Washington at the time of reporting. Hawaii is also hosting a primary race with 19 delegates up for grabs.
There are a total of 2,429 delegates up for grabs in the GOP primary.
Trump won more than 494,000 votes in Georgia with more than 90 percent of votes reported, according to The New York Times.
President Joe Biden won a little more than half of that total, coming in with slightly more than 273,000 votes with more than 95 percent of reporting in.
Both candidates made dueling campaign stops in the Peach State over the weekend. Trump spoke of securing the southern border and honoring Laken Riley, the 22-year-old Augusta University nursing student who was allegedly brutally murdered by an illegal immigrant.
