Romney has gained victories in six Super Tuesday states






Romney won Ohio's Republican presidential primary, narrowly defeating Rick Santorum in the most critical and hard-fought of the Super Tuesday contests.

In all, Romney has gained victories in six Super Tuesday states. The other states he's won are Massachusetts, Vermont, Virginia and Idaho.

“After last night, I feel pretty darn good,” Mr. Romney said in an interview on CNBC’s “Squawk Box” program Wednesday morning. “I’m prepared to fight all the way to become the nominee. We’ve got a very strong lead in delegates, a very strong lead in terms of the number of people who have actually voted for our campaign.”

Santorum has won Tennessee, Oklahoma and North Dakota, whileNewt Gingrich has won his home state of Georgia.

Romney's final win means that Ron Paul, who hoped for an Alaska win, has finished the 10-state Super Tuesday without a single victory.
