Clinton: 'This Is Another Super Tuesday for Our Campaign'

Hillary Clinton addressed her supporters in West Palm Beach, Florida, tonight after she was projected to win the Democratic primaries in three Mini Super Tuesday states, telling the crowd, "This is another Super Tuesday for our campaign."

Clinton was projected to win Florida, Ohio and North Carolina ahead of her speech.

Clinton said she'll end tonight with at least a 300 delegate lead over Bernie Sanders.

"We are moving closer to securing the Democratic party nomination and winning this election in November," she said to cheers. "You know, because of all of you and our supporters across the country, our campaign has earned more votes than any other candidate, Democrat or Republican."

The results for Missouri and Illinois were not yet projected at the time of Clinton's speech.

"Today all of you in the states where contests were held voted to break down the barriers that hold us all back so every one of us can share in the promise of America," Clinton told the crowd.

"Tonight it's clearer than ever that this may be one of the most consequential campaigns of our lifetimes," Clinton said. "The next president will walk into the Oval Office next January, sit down at that desk and start making decisions that will affect the lives and the livelihoods of everyone in this country, indeed, everyone on this planet."
