US / Joe Biden wins Washington primary election, leads Democratic presidential nomination from Democratic Party
Washington. Former US Vice President Joe Biden won the Washington primary election. He is at the forefront of the presidential candidacy from the Democratic Party. He is likely to challenge Donald Trump in the presidential election due in November. However, Biden won by a slight margin. While Biden received 37.9 percent of the vote, Sanders received 36.4 percent of the vote. Primary elections are currently being held in Arizona, Florida and Illinois. On the question of conducting primary elections in the midst of the Coronavirus outbreak, the Democratic Party said that voting eliminates fear.
Biden supports 898 delegates
The Democratic Party has a total of 3979 delegates and it is necessary to get the support of the 1991 delegates to get the presidential candidacy from the party. Biden is supported by 898 delegates. They need 1,093 delegates. Sanders is supported by 745 delegates. They need 1246 delegates. If even then a candidate does not get the support of the 1991 delegates, a second election process will be adopted for this.
Elections not held in Ohio
Elections in Ohio have been halted due to an outbreak of coronaviruses. Ohia’s election could have proved extremely decisive for Sanders. If Sanders had won this election, he could have strengthened his claim to Biden in the Democratic Party. If Sanders does not perform well, the pressure will increase on him to quit.
Biden said, no woman will become the vice-president to win the presidential election
Joe Biden said that Sanders is nowhere in the race for candidacy from the Democratic Party. He said that if he becomes President, he will appoint a woman for the post of Vice President.
