The Hill reports:
Trump is expected to notch at least 1,215 delegates — the minimum number needed to secure the Republican nod. Ahead of the Tuesday primaries, Trump had been awarded 1,077 delegates, according to DDHQ, meaning that he needed at least 138 delegates.
Between the Georgia, Hawaii, Mississippi and Washington state GOP nominating contests, there were 161 delegates up for grabs.
Though Trump wasn’t expected to face any serious primary challenge on Tuesday given that rival Nikki Haley had dropped out of the GOP primary last week, it was unclear if the former U.N. ambassador would continue to pick up votes as a form of protest to Trump.
The Tuesday primaries also capped off one of the least surprising Republican presidential contests. Despite the fact that a crowded field of GOP candidates ran against the former president for the nomination, all but two — Trump and Haley — remained by the time of the New Hampshire primary on Jan. 23.

Per NBC News:
Former President Donald Trump has secured enough delegates to seal the Republican presidential nomination, NBC News projects, setting up a 2024 rematch with President Joe Biden, who clinched the Democratic nomination earlier Tuesday night.
Trump came into Tuesday’s contests in Georgia, Hawaii, Mississippi and Washington as the presumptive nominee after vanquishing all his primary opponents, while Biden faced little opposition in his primary. Former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley ended her bid for the Republican nomination last week after winning just one state on Super Tuesday.
Trump’s projected victories Tuesday night pushed him over the 1,215 delegate mark — the “magic number” needed for a majority at the GOP’s July convention in Milwaukee. Those delegates will be bound by party rules to support him, even as he faces looming court cases in four separate indictments.
The general election starts with Biden seeing his favorability dip below 40% in a spate of recent polls, below Trump, who also remains unpopular. While Biden ran ahead of Trump in virtually every major poll in 2020, recent polls have shown the race virtually tied, or with Trump holding a slight edge, with voters raising concerns about Biden’s age and Trump’s legal woes.”}]] [[{“value”:”

Trump is expected secure at least 1,215 delegate — the minimum needed to win the Republican nomination. According to DDHQ’s estimates, Trump was awarded 1,077 delegates ahead of the Tuesday primaries. This meant that he would need at least 138 delegates.

Although Trump was not expected to face a serious primary challenge Tuesday, given that Nikki Haley dropped out of the GOP primaries last week it was unclear whether the former U.N. Ambassador would continue to collect votes as a protest to Trump.
The Tuesday primaries also marked the end of one of the less surprising Republican presidential contests. The fact that there were a lot of GOP candidates who ran against the former President for the nomination was not surprising. All but two — Trump, and Haley — were still standing by the time the New Hampshire primary took place on Jan. 23, 2017.

Per NBC News
NBC News estimates that former President Donald Trump has enough delegates to secure the Republican presidential nomination. This will set up a rematch in 2024 with President Joe Biden who won the Democratic nomination on Tuesday night.
Trump entered Tuesday’s contests, in Georgia, Hawaii and Washington, as the presumptive candidate, having defeated all of his primary opponents. Biden, meanwhile, faced little opposition during his primary. Nikki Haley, the former United Nations ambassador, ended her campaign for the Republican nomination in last week’s Super Tuesday after winning only one state.
Trump’s projected wins Tuesday night propelled him over the 1,215 delegates mark — the “magic” number needed to achieve a majority during the GOP’s convention in Milwaukee, which will take place in July. These delegates are bound by party rules, to support him despite the fact that he is facing four separate court cases.
In a series of recent polls, Biden’s favorability has dropped below 40%, placing him below Trump who remains unpopular. Biden was ahead of Trump in almost every major poll conducted in 2020. However, recent polls show that the race is virtually tied or that Trump has a slight advantage. Voters are concerned about Trump’s age and Biden’s legal troubles.
