Barack Obama remains the front-runner to secure the Democratic presidential nomination in the United States following last night's primaries in North Carolina and Indiana.
Obama won the North Carolina ballot with 56% of the vote, while his rival, Hillary Clinton, secured a narrow in in Indiana.
The results mean Obama still has a significant delegate lead over Clinton ahead of the traditional convention to choose the Democratic candidate for this year's presidential election.
The closeness of the battle means the race will effectively be decided by "super-delegates", top Democrat party officials who have a free vote at the convention.
These officials normally follow the popular vote, which is in Obama's favour.
