After winning key primaries Tuesday, Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton declared herself firmly on the path to the nomination and took aim at GOP front-runner Donald Trump.

“We are moving closer to securing the Democratic Party nomination and winning the election in November,” Mrs. Clinton told supporters at her campaign headquarters in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Mrs. Clinton said her decisive wins in Florida, Ohio and North Carolina demonstrated that Democrats were coalescing behind her and she urged independents and undecided voters to side with her.

“Now is the time to come join us,” she said.

Acting more like the inevitable nominee, Mrs. Clinton blasted Mr. Trump for proposing a temporarily ban Muslims on entering the U.S.

“That doesn’t make him strong. It makes him wrong,” Mrs. Clinton to cheers and applause from her supporters.
