Former Vice President Joe Biden has won Maine’s Democratic presidential primary, adding to his list of wins over Super Tuesday.
Sanders, who won Maine with 64 percent in 2016, was forecasted to win the state leading up to Super Tuesday.
This is the 10th state that Biden has won or is projected to win out of the 14 states that held Democratic primaries on Super Tuesday.
Sanders is projected to win in California, the state with the most number of delegates on offer—415—on Super Tuesday. The Vermont senator also won in his home state, as well as Colorado and Utah, according to The Associated Press.
On Wednesday, Sanders told Democratic voters that they face a serious choice in picking between him and Biden.
Sanders said that his campaign is about taking on “the entire corporate establishment,” including insurance, drug, and oil companies, and “the entire political establishment,” which has been “working frantically to defeat us.”
Biden, by contrast, is running a campaign with support from both establishments, Sanders alleged. Biden wouldn’t bring about the changes needed in the country, he said.
Bloomberg is now endorsing Biden for the Democratic nomination. Former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, and Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) also endorsed Biden after ending their bids in recent days.
Over a third of delegates, or around 34 percent, were up for grabs in Tuesday’s Democratic nominating contests—1,357 out of a total of 3,979 pledged delegates nationwide. A Democratic candidate needs to win at least 1,991 delegates to win the Democratic nomination on the first ballot by the party’s national convention in July.
