Donald Trump won both the Michigan and Mississippi Republican presidential primaries on Tuesday, the two biggest states voting on Tuesday, extending his control of the party’s nomination race despite unrelenting attacks on him in recent days as the other contenders fight for enough delegates to block his path.
On the Democratic side, Bernie Sanders upset Hillary Clinton in Michigan, a state where he’d hammered the former secretary of state on job losses from trade deals. Clinton won a commanding victory in Mississippi with the overwhelming support of black voters.
