Hillary Clinton won in seven states while her rival Bernie Sanders posted victories in four states of Vermont, Oklahoma, Colorado and Minnesota.
Miami:
Gearing up for a likely clash with Donald Trump for US presidency, former secretary of state Hillary Clinton today attacked the controversial Republican front-runner's campaign slogan of 'Making America Great Again', saying the country never stopped being great.
"We know we've got work to do. But, that work, that work is not to make America great again. America never stopped being great. We have to make America whole. We have to fill in what's been hollowed out," a confident Mr Clinton said in her victory speech in Florida after winning big in the multi-state 'Super Tuesday' primaries.
Mr Clinton won in seven states -- Alaska, Arkansas, Georgia, Tennessee, Texas, Massachusetts and Virginia -- while her rival Bernie Sanders posted victories in four states of Vermont, Oklahoma, Colorado and Minnesota.
"We have to make strong the broken places, re-stitch the bonds of trust and respect across our country," Mr Clinton said.
"Now it might be unusual, as I've said before, for a presidential candidate to say this, but I'm going to keep saying it, 'I believe what we need in America today is more love and kindness," the 68-year-old said amidst applause from her supporters.
"Because you know what? It works. Instead of building walls we're going to break down barriers and build ladders of opportunity and empowerment so every American can live up to his or her potential, because then and only then can America live up to its full potential too," Mr Clinton said in an apparent jibe at Mr Trump who has said he will build a wall on the Mexico border if he becomes President.
69-year-old Mr Trump also won at least six of the 11 state primaries of the Republican party as the possibility of a November presidential election showdown between him and Mr Clinton seemed likely.
"Now it's clear tonight that the stakes in this election have never been higher. And the rhetoric we're hearing on the other side has never been lower. Trying to divide America between us and them is wrong, and we're not going to let it work," Mr Clinton said in another jibe at Mr Trump.
