Donald Trump has won presidential primaries in all five US states that voted on Tuesday, while Hillary Clinton took four out of five.
Trump called himself the Republican "presumptive nominee" after victories in Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island. The results bring him closer to the number of delegates he needs before the party's national convention in July.
For the Democrats, Clinton was denied a clean sweep by Bernie Sanders. Sanders won the vote in Rhode Island, and vowed to fight to the end of the primaries process.
Speaking at Philadelphia Convention Center after securing the four other states, Clinton said her campaign was setting "bold, progressive goals" to improve lives in the US.
Meanwhile, Trump told supporters in New York he would not moderate his policies if elected president. His rivals, Ted Cruz and John Kasich, have already shifted their attention to upcoming states, teaming up to help each other in the Indiana, Oregon and New Mexico primaries. The US Presidential election is scheduled for November.
