Kerry picks up more primary wins in Idaho and Utah


Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts won the Democratic presidential primaries in Idaho, Utah and Hawaii on Tuesday.

Kerry won all three states with more than 50 percent of the vote. Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina ran second in Idaho and Utah. Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio ran second with 26 percent in Hawaii.

With the exception of Kucinich, the candidates did not focus on these states, home to several tribes and Native Hawaiians. They are focusing on the March 2 "Super Tuesday" races in big states, including New York and California.
