Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump celebrated his home state win at Trump Tower in New York City Tuesday and touted his lead in delegates as he tries to clear the 1,237 delegates needed to avoid a second ballot at the Republican convention in July. "We don't have much of a race anymore," Trump said. "Sen. Cruz is just about mathematically eliminated."

DONALD TRUMP: We don't have much of a race anymore. Based on what I'm seeing on television, Sen. Cruz is just about mathematically eliminated. And we've won another state. As you know, we've won millions of more votes than Sen. Cruz. Millions and millions more than Gov. Kasich. We've won, and now especially after tonight, close to 300 delegates more than Sen. Cruz. We're really, really rocking.
