Trump dominates Super Tuesday by winning SEVEN states: Tycoon crushes his rivals as Ted Cruz takes Texas, Alaska and a surprise victory in Oklahoma - knocking Marco Rubio out the race for second place

Donald Trump romped through the second biggest day in American politics – only November presidential elections are grander – etching his name on seven trophies in the Republican party's Super Tuesday display case.
Three states, Texas, Oklahoma, and Alaska, eluded his grasp and went to Ted Cruz, a senator from the Lone Star State.
And Marco Rubio had a dismal night, claiming only Minnesota's caucuses.
In the Democratic race, Hillary Clinton swept seven states over Bernie Sanders - a commanding performance that will settle nerves in her campaign.
But the rest of the night belonged to The Donald.
The billionaire real estate tycoon has been declared the GOP primary winner in Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Massachusetts, Tennessee, Vermont and Virginia.
Cruz held on to claim Texas on the strength of an almost single-minded campaign strategy that ceded other southern territories to Trump.
Partly as a result, the GOP front-runner's early victories set a blowout pace.
