For erstwhile South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, Trump's past remaining hurdle to his 3rd GOP statesmanlike nomination, Tuesday marks what is apt her last accidental to upend the contention and dilatory Trump.

This is simply a processing story. Below are 9 things to ticker for:

The nighttime the lights spell retired connected Haley

Barring a stunning upset - actually, aggregate stunning upsets crossed the state - Super Tuesday is looking similar the extremity of the roadworthy for Haley.

So what comes next?

While Haley has said she would enactment successful the contention done astatine slightest Super Tuesday, she has not hinted astatine an exit. Candidates seldom do. But if she is swept by Trump, her stated rationale for her run - being "competitive" - volition beauteous overmuch disappear. The erstwhile president is wide expected to mathematically clinch the nomination, with 1,215 oregon much delegates, by the extremity of the month.

Her electoral fate, though, has been sealed for immoderate clip now.

Over the past fewer weeks, Haley has mostly utilized her level to pass the GOP astir Trump's electability and present galore of the aforesaid criticisms of his behaviour that Never Trump Republicans, similar erstwhile Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, made arsenic their governmental careers ended - astatine slightest for now.

Haley's large decision, whether it comes precocious Tuesday night, Wednesday greeting oregon successful a mates much weeks volition beryllium however she frames her decision - and however she addressed the victor. It seems unlikely, particularly fixed immoderate of her much caller comments, that she volition whole-heartedly endorse Trump.

In the end, her absorption to decision could beryllium arsenic important, astatine slightest to her ain governmental career, arsenic the run she's been moving for much than a year.

Are determination immoderate further signs of weakness for Biden?

Michigan was captious to Biden's predetermination successful 2020. It volition beryllium arsenic important, if not much so, this year. So erstwhile helium was met determination with a important protestation ballot implicit his relation successful Israel's warfare successful Gaza, it was worthy taking enactment - and stock, arsenic warring continues connected contempt hints of an imminent ceasefire.

On Tuesday, Minnesota - different authorities location to a ample colonisation of Muslim Americans - could marque akin headlines if capable Democrats formed votes for "uncommitted." The protestation run determination didn't person arsenic overmuch runway oregon the aforesaid enactment arsenic Michigan's, but it could yet present different informing to the president successful a portion wherever helium cannot spend to permission votes connected the array oregon let an opening for a third-party campaigner to summation momentum.

Elsewhere, turnout volition beryllium the most-used barometer for Biden's success. Given helium has nary existent contention successful the primary, the fig of Democrats who get up and retired to ballot for him anyhow could astatine slightest dilatory a communicative of intra-party disillusionment.

Perhaps adjuvant successful that respect is Trump's beardown show successful the GOP contest. Whatever the Democratic rank-and-file thinks astir Biden today, the specter of Trump returning to the White House ever has and volition beryllium captious to the president's strength.

Any further signs of weakness for Trump?

Trump's basal is beauteous overmuch acceptable successful stone. But if 2020 was immoderate indication, it won't beryllium capable to triumph him the election. Instead, the erstwhile president volition request to marque astatine slightest humble inroads with college-educated suburban voters.

That radical was a occupation for him 4 years agone and successful some the 2018 and 2022 midterms, when, archetypal successful bureau and past from without, the cohort roundly rejected MAGA Republicans. Even arsenic Trump romped successful South Carolina past month, his numbers successful the suburbs severely lagged successful agrarian areas and smaller towns.

Virginia and North Carolina are connected the docket for Tuesday and each volition supply caller information points for Trump-backing Republicans, who volition support a adjacent oculus connected the numbers coming retired of each state's influential and increasing suburban populations.

Trump mislaid Virginia twice, successful 2016 and 2020, but won North Carolina some times helium was connected the ballot. Four years ago, though, his borderline of triumph determination implicit Biden was little than 1.5%. (Barack Obama, successful 2008, is the lone Democratic statesmanlike campaigner to transportation the authorities successful astir a half-century.)

Biden's support ratings successful the authorities are not good, but North Carolina Republicans' termination prohibition - passed implicit the objection of the Democratic politician - was little fashionable and lone made imaginable due to the fact that of a turncoat lawmaker who joined the GOP.

A North Carolina governor's contention with implications up and down the ballot

On a Super Tuesday with an antithetic deficiency of spice, the North Carolina gubernatorial superior is simply a uncommon exception.

Not due to the fact that either party's contention is expected to beryllium adjacent - Republican Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson and Democratic authorities Attorney General Josh Stein are expected to seashore to their parties' respective nominations. But Robinson is simply a MAGA star, a person similar Trump who is liable to accidental thing astatine immoderate time. That cuts some ways, of course, arsenic Robinson's repertoire includes galore examples of bigoted, hateful rhetoric.

On the different side, Stein is betting that his committedness to civilian and termination rights, to spell with his much even-handed disposition, volition assistance him support the governor's mansion successful Democratic hands. (Gov. Roy Cooper, besides a Democrat, is term-limited aft doubly winning the office.)

This could beryllium the uncommon contention successful which the coattails flap up alternatively than down. Robinson is the benignant of wildly divisive fig - helium has called the LGBTQ assemblage "filth" and dabbled successful Holocaust denial - who, if his run goes sideways, could resistance different GOP candidates down with it.

Democrats, from Biden to Stein connected down, are going to marque definite voters cognize his grounds - and marque him reply for it.

Texas Democrats prime a Cruz challenger

Six years aft then-Rep. Beto O'Rourke's near-miss nonaccomplishment to Republican Sen. Ted Cruz, Democrats stay winless successful Texas statewide races since 1994.

US Rep. Colin Allred is the frontrunner to situation Cruz. But helium faces 8 rivals, including authorities Sen. Roland Gutierrez - a San Antonio lawmaker whose territory includes Uvalde, and who has made weapon restrictions a absorption of his run - successful Tuesday's primary.

If Allred earns much than 50% of the vote, he'll beforehand to the wide predetermination against Cruz. But if helium doesn't deed that mark, he'll look the second-place superior finisher successful a May runoff.

Texas, on with Florida, mightiness correspond Democrats' champion accidental of going connected discourtesy connected the 2024 Senate map, arsenic the enactment defends a slew of seats successful states Trump is apt to triumph successful the statesmanlike contention - including Montana, Ohio and West Virginia, arsenic good arsenic statesmanlike battlegrounds Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

Allred, a erstwhile NFL subordinate who won his House spot by ousting a Republican incumbent successful a hard-fought 2018 race, has focused connected wellness attraction - including his enactment for the Affordable Care Act and termination rights. He is besides a prolific fundraiser, outraising Cruz $4.8 cardinal to $3.4 cardinal successful 2023's 4th fourth and ending the twelvemonth with $10 cardinal successful the slope to Cruz's $6.2 million.

Down-ballot successful Texas, there's much to watch, starting with the payback run of Attorney General Ken Paxton. Paxton, who successful the Texas Legislature was impeached by the House but not convicted by the Senate, is backing efforts to oust much than 30 Republican authorities lawmakers, including House Speaker Dade Phelan, a vocal professional of the lawyer general. He's besides seeking to oust 3 blimpish members of the state's appeals tribunal who voted to bounds the lawyer general's powers.

Does a Republican beforehand successful California's Senate race?

The contention to capable the spot erstwhile held by the precocious Sen. Dianne Feinstein - presently filled by appointed Sen. Laphonza Butler, who isn't seeking a afloat word - agelong looked apt to beryllium a Democrat vs. Democrat wide election.

But Republican Steve Garvey, a erstwhile shot star, could clang that enactment - not that the Democratic front-runner, Rep. Adam Schiff, would mind.

In California, each candidates careless of enactment vie successful the aforesaid primary, and the apical 2 finishers beforehand to the wide election.

Schiff faces stiff Democratic competition, including from chap Reps. Katie Porter and Barbara Lee.

Garvey hasn't aired a azygous tv ad. But Schiff's run has aired ads labeling Garvey arsenic "too conservative" - a strategy that could assistance him successful the superior by turning retired California's blimpish voters.

Those conservatives marque up a number of the state's electorate, to beryllium sure, but if they consolidate down 1 campaigner and the Democratic ballot is fractured, it could beryllium capable for Garvey to marque the apical two.

The strategy down Schiff's ads is built connected the content that a Democrat vs. Democrat contention would beryllium unpredictable, portion a Republican wide predetermination hostile would beryllium overmuch easier to bushed successful the deep-blue state.

Two Alabama House showdowns

New legislature territory maps successful Alabama are acceptable to shingle up the state's legislature delegation.

Two Republican incumbents, existent 1st District Rep. Jerry Carl and 2nd District Rep. Barry Moore, were some drawn into the caller 1st District - which means Tuesday's superior volition spell the extremity of 1 of their legislature careers.

The contention is wide seen arsenic a contention betwixt the much blimpish Moore, a House Freedom Caucus subordinate who has campaigned with Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, and the much pragmatic Carl, who is backed by Louisiana Rep. Steve Scalise, the No. 2 House Republican, and the Chamber of Commerce.

The caller 2nd District, which present includes overmuch of the Black Belt, is seen arsenic a apt Democratic pickup. Eleven Democratic candidates, including 5 authorities lawmakers, and 7 Republicans are connected Tuesday's superior ballots. The immense fields mean it's improbable immoderate azygous campaigner gets much than 50% of the vote, truthful 1 oregon some primaries could spell to an April runoff featuring the apical 2 finishers.

The caller districts are the effect of a ineligible confrontation that drew nationalist attraction to Alabama. A national tribunal approved a caller legislature representation past twelvemonth that gives the state's African American residents - who marque up astir 27% of the colonisation - the accidental to elite a campaigner of their prime successful a 2nd House district. Currently, Black voters marque up the bulk of voters successful conscionable 1 territory retired of 7 successful Alabama. It's represented by Democrat Terri Sewell, the lone Black subordinate of the state's legislature delegation

California House races cardinal to bulk battle

Democrats are targeting 7 Republican-held House seats successful California - turning the authorities into crushed zero successful the party's bid for a nett summation of astatine slightest 4 seats successful November that would triumph them backmost the majority.

The result of immoderate Tuesday primaries - contests successful which each candidates look connected the aforesaid ballot and the apical 2 vote-getters beforehand to November - volition signifier those autumn races.

Though large involvement groups person divided their enactment successful respective competitory contests, the astir important happening to ticker is whether either enactment gets locked retired of a cardinal race.

Among the Republican-held seats to ticker closely: The 22nd District, wherever Rep. David Valadao faces 2 Democrats and 1 Republican successful his bid to clasp his always-competitive Central Valley seat; the 45th District, held by Rep. Michelle Steel; the 40th District, represented by Rep. Young Kim; and Rep. Ken Calvert's 41st District.

And among the Democratic-held seats to watch: The 47th District, wherever Rep. Katie Porter's Senate bid has near a vacancy successful Orange County that Republican erstwhile authorities Assemblyman Scott Baugh hopes to fill; Rep. Josh Harder's 9th District; and Rep. Mike Levin's 49th District.

Criminal justness ballot measures to watch

In San Francisco - the metropolis conservatives often mention arsenic an illustration of rampant spot transgression and cause usage - Mayor London Breed is backing a measurement that would let the constabulary section to instal surveillance cameras that usage facial designation technology, alteration constabulary to pursuit those suspected of committing felonies oregon misdemeanors and usage drones for car chases.

Another measurement would acceptable minimum staffing levels for the constabulary department, a measurement the city's Board of Supervisors argues would assistance ace down connected crime, but that would necessitate a taxation hike to fund.

The measures are a trial of whether, aft a yearslong progressive propulsion for much wide transgression justness policies, voters are present seeking much assertive crack-downs connected crime.

In Los Angeles, District Attorney George Gascon, who has already survived 2 callback efforts, faces 11 challengers, galore of whom knock him arsenic excessively progressive implicit his refusal to question currency bail for misdemeanors and nonviolent felonies.

Gascon has besides faced disapproval for 2 policies helium has since eased, including a broad prohibition connected prosecuting juveniles arsenic adults and refusing to question beingness situation sentences without parole.
