With a win in Georgia's primary on Tuesday, President Biden secured the Democratic nominee in the face of no real competition. Shortly after voting ended at 7 p.m. Eastern, the AP declared Biden the winner.
According to a CBS News prediction, the president will get 1,968 delegates from the state's delegates, making him the front-runner. In Mississippi, where the votes closed at 8 p.m. Eastern, Biden also prevailed in the primary, and he is expected to pick up more delegates in the Washington state contest.
In a statement, Biden expressed his joy at winning the nomination and called Republican front-runner Donald Trump—who is predicted to win the nomination later on Tuesday—a danger to democracy.
According to the AP, Biden said that Trump is "running a campaign of resentment, revenge, and retribution that threatens the very idea of America." "I am honored that the broad coalition of voters representing the rich diversity of the Democratic Party across the country have put their faith in me once again to lead our party—and our country—in a moment when the threat Trump poses is greater than ever."
