Super Tuesday Being Determinant Two US Presidential Candidates

MASSAPEDIA NEWS - The United States will conduct primary elections and caucuses in many states to determine who developed a presidential candidate two parties on Tuesday (2/3) local time. Normally, the two winners of the election were called "Super Tuesday" will go forward to fight in the US election campaign.

Super Tuesday will take place on Tuesday US time, March 1, 2015. On this day, at the same 14 states in the United States will conduct primary elections or caucuses to choose delegates to 1,000 Democrats and 600 Republicans to advance to the party conventions.

The number of delegates elected in the Super Tuesday very significantly determine who the candidates standing in elections. Because, for the convention, the Democrats require 2,382 delegates, while the 1237 Republican delegates.

"The winner of the Super Tuesday greater chances for a presidential candidate," said Deputy Ambassador of the United States Embassy in Indonesia, Brian McFeeters, in Jakarta, Tuesday (1/3).

McFeeters said that Super Tuesday would be a filter for a losing candidate. Usually after this stage the number of contestants will be reduced because of a candidate winning feels a little noise will not be able to win or increasingly difficult to find supporters.

Super Tuesday is held to maximize the influence of the states that have the same concerns about national issues. Most of the participants of the Super Tuesday states also have small populations so as to vote on the same day could increase the influence of these territories in determining the next US leader.

Deputy political adviser to the US Embassy in Jakarta Siriana Nair on the same occasion said that this time the candidates will aggressively try to convince voters to vote for them.

Now, he added, the Republican candidate will be "increasingly skewed to the right" while Democrats "more to the left". Their attitude will become more moderate in July, ahead of the convention.

"What you look for is how much a candidate reflects the party's principles," said Nair.

In the last Democrat Hillary Clinton, who is struggling to become the first woman US president, and Bernie Sanders, the self-proclaimed socialist democrats. While in Republican nominations are Donald Trump, Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz are both fighting over the sound.

According McFeeters, Clinton likely to win the presidential election defeating Bernie Sanders. But Republicans still have not seen clear who would win.

"Hillary Clinton is very much in charge. While the Republic still has to compete, even though Trump won a few times before," said McFeeters.

In the primary on Saturday (27/2) and then in South Carolina, Clinton and Bernie grind up the lead with 50 points adrift. Clinton won the support of blacks in South Carolina, which number more than half of voters in the state.

While the poll Reuters / Ipsos, Trump took the lead in the national scale to support himself reaching 44.2 per cent, followed by Cruz at the position of 20.7 percent and 14 percent Rubio in position.

Clinton is optimistic about winning the Super Tuesday also viewed Trump as competitors in the presidential elections on 8th November. In the campaign last week, the wife of former president Bill Clinton was even making comments on Trump slogan "Make America Great Again" or make America great again.

"We do not need to make America great again, America does not cease to be great," said Clinton.
