The former U.S. first lady who joined the presidential bid emerged victorious on Super Tuesday. Yes, it was a huge win for Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party as well as for Donald Trump and the Republican Party.

Clinton Leads the Poll

According to the Super Tuesday results posted by The New York Times, Clinton won seven of the 11 states. It was a landslide victory against her close competitor Bernie Sanders, who had the other four states. Clinton won 78 percent in Alaska, 66 percent in Arkansas, 71 percent in Georgia, 50 percent in Massachusetts, 66 percent in Tennessee, 65 percent in Texas and 64 percent in Virginia.

Democratic Turnout Drops

Although there is no doubt that the first female president hopeful is in the lead, there are several challenges at bay. In a separate report from The New York Times, the Democratic turnout has dropped since 2008.

In fact, 2008 was the last time the party held a contested primary, with "roughly three million fewer Democrats voting in the 15 states that have held caucuses or primaries through Tuesday." 

The decline in the number of Democratic voters happened in almost every state. In Texas, the number was reduced by 50 percent, while iit dropped by 40 percent in Tennessee. The same scenario is observed in Alabama, Arkansas and Georgia that experienced between a quarter and a third decrease.

For instance, according to exit polls, the Hispanic voters in Nevada who helped to convert the Republican state into Democrats were lower compared to the figures in 2008. In South Carolina, where Clinton dominated, there was a 40 percent decline in black turnout and in Iowa, voters under 30 years old decreased by 40 percent.

Given this scenario, many are concerned that Clinton will struggle to get the same support from black, Hispanics and young voters who paved the way for President Barack Obama's seat in the White House.

However, Clinton's camp remains positive. "In the last three election cycles in which Democrats controlled the White House, Republicans had higher turnout during the primaries, but Democrats went on to win the popular vote," Brian Fallon, Clinton's spokesperson said.

Clinton vs. Trump

After their success in Super Tuesday, both are eyeing each other for the presidential bid, per Aljazeera.

In a victory rally in Miami, Clinton said, "It's clear tonight that the stakes in this election have never been higher and the rhetoric we're hearing on the other side has never been lower."

Meanwhile, Trump has his eyes on Clinton as well. "She's been there for so long," the GOP front-runner said. "If she hasn't straightened it out by now, she's not going to straighten it out in the next four years."
