Polls Open in Virginia for Super Tuesday Primaries #shorts | VOA News

Voters in Virginia began filling out ballots in the presidential primaries on Tuesday, March 5, as polls opened in several states across the nation on "Super Tuesday."

In Charlottesville, voters began drifting into the polling station just after it opened at 6 am EST (1100 GMT).

As the Republican Party primary contests continue into their third month, former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley is the only remaining challenger to former U.S. President Donald Trump.

The primaries will determine who is the GOP’s nominee for president and who will challenge President Joe Biden in November’s presidential election.

Trump has won all but one of the 11 primaries and caucuses so far, racking up 276 total delegates to Haley’s 43. (Haley earned her first victory in Washington D.C. this past weekend, a contest long predicted to go her way.) With 15 states casting their votes for a nominee on March 5, a day known as “Super Tuesday,” Republicans are divided on whether Haley should remain in the race or get out of the former president’s way.
