Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton won in the primary elections held in Arizona.

Arizona's win gives Trump a little less than half the delegates allocated so far. That's still short of the majority needed to clinch the nomination before the Republican party's national convention in July.

However, Trump has a path to the nomination if he continues to win states that award all or most of their delegates to the winner. Overall, Trump has accumulated 739 delegates.

Also, Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton achieved a big win over her rival Berny Sanders in Arizona.

Hillary's win is a big blow to Sanders who pined much hope in winning the primary of the western states.

The US primary elections were held on Tuesday in three states; Utah, Idaho and Arizona, which is a key state in the primary vote.
