24 states hold presidential primarys on super Tuesday. they include Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Kansas, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Utah, and West Virginia.
At the moment there are about 16 States left to vote. The biggest state still to vote in the primaries is Texas with 228 delegates. Other important states yet to vote are Pennsylvania with 188, Ohio with 161 and North Carolina with 134 delegates. Texas and Ohio will vote on Mar 4, Pennsylvania on April 22 and North Carolina on May 6. In total these remaining big states make-up 771 delegates. The total of delegates of the other 12 smaller states is 480. So we just might have to wait until June 7th when Puerto Rico the last state casts its vote before it is clear which Democractic candidate (Hillary vs. Obama) wins the primaries or it may be left to the super delegates (whoever they are and however that works???).

C and B are both correct, I think. National primaries award votes to candidates at the conventions, but not all states have them and there are other delegates that are not bound by primaries. In recent years, one candidate has won so many votes in primaries that the nomination is either locked up or almost locked up, but it is possible that no candidate would have a clear edge when the convention begins. Primaries only bind delegates for the first ballot.
as of April 5 there are still 689 delegates remaining.

It depends on what state (and what office)? Laws vary state by state usually determined by what the parties decide. On the presidential level, independents can currently vote in 33 states in the (Democratic) Primary (there's a few states, e.g. California, where it's open in one party and closed in the other) and closed in 17. In Idaho, the Republican Party is trying to close down a primary that has been open for many years and independents (led by the Committee for A Unified Independent Party (www.independentvoting.org) and the Amnerican Independent Movement of Idaho intervened on the suit and won the right for the first time for independents who are not a party to be party to a suit of this kind). And there are several states (e.g. Kentucky) where legislation has recently been introduced to open the primaries).
Thirty-four US states and the District of Columbia hold presidential primary elections. There are three types of primaries, open, closed and mixed.

The most common type of primary in the U.S. is the closed primary, where only registered party members can vote in their party's primary elections. This system is designed to ensure that only those who are aligned with the party's values and platform can influence the selection of candidates for the general election. Many states use closed primaries, but there are also open and semi-closed primaries, allowing some variation in how parties select their candidates.

The most common form of primary for nominating candidates in the United States is the closed primary. In a closed primary, only registered party members can vote to select their party's candidate, which helps ensure that nominees are aligned with the party's ideology. This system is used by many states to maintain party integrity and encourage active participation among committed party members. However, some states also utilize open primaries, where unaffiliated voters can participate, allowing for broader electoral engagement.
The last date on which state primaries and caucuses can be held is typically referred to as "Super Tuesday," which usually occurs in early March, although the exact date can vary by election cycle. In 2024, this date is scheduled for March 5. On this day, a total of 14 states and territories will hold their primaries or caucuses, making it a significant event in the presidential nomination process.
