US media say she has taken the Democratic primary polls in Texas, Ohio and Rhode Island. The results of caucus meetings in Texas are not yet known.
Rival Democrat Barack Obama took the primary in the state of Vermont.
Meanwhile, John McCain has won the Republican nomination with projected wins in all the four states.
His closest rival, Mike Huckabee, has dropped out of the race and pledged to support Mr McCain's candidacy.
Mr McCain's victories take him over the threshold of 1,191 delegates needed to claim the nomination at the party's national convention in September.
Both Democratic candidates called Mr McCain to congratulate him on clinching the Republican candidacy.
'Coming back'
Speaking to jubilant crowds in Columbus, Ohio, Mrs Clinton said she was determined to stay in the race and looked forward to continuing the debate with Mr Obama "in the weeks ahead".
