Biden Formally Clinches Democratic Presidential Nomination
Epoch Times, Jun 5, 2020, Associated Press
WASHINGTON—Joe Biden formally clinched the Democratic presidential nomination Friday, setting him up for a bruising challenge to President Donald Trump.
“It was an honor to compete alongside one of the most talented groups of candidates the Democratic party has ever fielded,†Biden said in a statement Friday night, â€and I am proud to say that we are going into this general election a united party.â€
The former vice president has effectively been his party’s leader since his last challenger in the Democratic primary, Bernie Sanders, ended his campaign in April. But Biden pulled together the 1,991 delegates needed to become the nominee after seven states and the District of Columbia held presidential primaries Tuesday.
Biden reached the threshold three days after the primaries because several states, overwhelmed by huge increases in mail ballots, took days to tabulate results. Teams of analysts at The Associated Press then parsed the votes into individual congressional districts. Democrats award most delegates to the party’s national convention based on results in individual congressional districts.

Soon he will be out on the post-covid campaign trail, clinching the shoulders of 8 year old lassies.
Question: If sunshine and vitamin D are good for covid-19, why none for the nominee?
IIn the mask he looks like a character from "The Munsters" or the Adams Family

It will be interesting to see who accompanies him to help him with all of his gaffes .... any day I would think he'll be announcing who his Black VP. My bet is still on Michael Obama.
