Ohio Primary



Ohio closed it’s polls at 7:30 p.m. yesterday, and presumptive nominee Joe Biden has now widened his lead even further, winning the state with 72.4% to Bernie Sanders’ 16.6% The early votes had Biden edging his opponent, but as votes continues Sanders scrapped enough to make the delegate threshold: he ended with 16.6%, just enough to win him a small portion of the delegates.

Here’s how the delegates were divided (136 pledged delegates were up for grabs):
Biden - 123
Sanders - 13

Here’s how the delegate count stands as of now;


P.S.: It doesn’t include it on the image I screen-grabbed, but if you add the 274 pledged delegates from the cancelled new York Primary to Joe Biden, then that gives you a grand total of 1,702.
SUBSTANTIAL lead for him. Wow!

NEXT: If they don’t end up cancelled, there will be two primary elections happening on May 2: Guam and Kansas. They will total 45 delegates. With or without the cancelled New York contest factored, it won’t be enough to secure Biden the nomination —- neither will the remaining three contests after this that are scheduled for the month of May. The first week of June will probably do it for him, cause it’s the big one with 500 delegates up for grabs.
