Todays the day folks- 24 States are having 43 presidential nominating contests.

[Update] Obama, it is being said, came out of Super Tuesday with more delegates than Clinton and it does look like Super Delegates will be the determining factor for the determining which Democrat gets chosen as the parties nominee.
On the GOP side of things, Human Events explains:
McCain won ten of the twenty-one Republican primaries and caucuses, including five winner-take-all contests, resulting in a total (according to the Associated Press count) of 610 delegates of the 1191 needed to clinch the Republican nomination. The strong showing in WTA states of Missouri and New York were a substantial part of McCain’s total. McCain apparently also won delegate-rich California (though returns are not yet final, and California is not a WTA state).
Mitt Romney’s showing was poor, scoring only 266 delegates. Mike Huckabee came in third at 190. (These totals will vary as the California results become final.)
.
Ron Paul did not win any of the states on Super Tuesday.
