Put three more states down for Donald Trump. The New York businessman won primaries in Alabama, Tennessee, and Massachusetts, according to projections from CNN.

This is in addition to Trump winning in Georgia, which was called earlier on Tuesday evening.

Trump is also leading in Virginia, but that vote is still too close to call.

This marks a major series of wins for Trump, who has consolidated support in the South. His rival, Senator Ted Cruz, is leading in Oklahoma, and the biggest prize of the night, Texas, is still voting. Texas is Cruz’s home state, so a solid Trump performance there would be mark a huge blow to the senator.
