Today is what is known as "Super Tuesday" in the USA, the biggest day of the campaign this year, where 16 American states will vote to choose the Republican candidate for the presidential elections.
The internal party elections will take place from Alaska and California to Virginia and Vermont and mark a key moment for current US President Joe Biden and his predecessor Donald Trump, who are the leading candidates for the Democratic and Republican presidential nominations.
More than a third of the total number of delegates is up for grabs on Super Tuesday, and the Republican candidate could win 854 of the 2,429 delegates, while the Democrats could win 1,420, which is also more than a third of the total. delegates.
In favor of former US President Donald Trump, the US Federal Supreme Court overturned the decision of a Colorado Court that the former President was ineligible to run for president again in that state due to the chaos in Capitol Hill.
"Super Tuesday" is one of the most critical stages of the primaries for both Republicans and Democrats in 16 US states, where traditionally the real dynamics of all candidates on one side are recorded and the first conclusions are drawn for each move, especially "neutral" voters.
But the decision of the Supreme Court, however, cannot be ruled out to widen the gap between the current president, Joe Biden, and Donald Trump, when the latter leads with a percentage of 48% to the current president, who has a percentage of 43%, in the latest New York Times/Sienna College poll.
For Democrats, the internal party elections do not present any surprises, as President Joe Biden will undoubtedly be the party's candidate in the presidential elections again.
Tens of millions of Americans are expected to choose their candidate, from Maine in the northeast of the United States, to California on the other side of the country, through Texas and to Samoa.
Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont and Virginia also vote tomorrow.
Voting in so many US states at the same time is an opportunity for candidates to prove that they may not be able to mobilize voters of different profiles.
Biden does not have a serious opponent in the internal party elections, which is common for the outgoing president seeking a second term.
More unusual is the fact that Trump, as a former president seeking to return to the White House, has won all but one of the party polls so far.
