From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.More than 20 states went to the polls on Super Tuesday in the most significant day so far in the race to the White House. Republican John McCain was seen as the day's winner, Mitt Romney as its loser and Mike Huckabee as the surprise performer.
In the Democratic contest, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama split the successes as the former First Lady won California and Massachusetts but the Illinois senator took more states.
Here is a summary of the results so far in each state:
