Here are 5 takeaways from a pivotal night in the 2020 election.
The candidate who has carried African American voters has won every Democratic presidential primary since 1992, and that streak looks likely to continue in 2020.
Biden's performance with black voters since South Carolina has been nothing short of dominant. They propelled him to a significant delegate lead last week and helped him expand it this week. On Tuesday, he won black voters by 38 points in Michigan, by 48 points in Missouri and by 76 points in Mississippi.
One bright spot for Sanders? He continued to do well among Latino voters there after they carried him to victories in states like Nevada and Colorado."I want to thank Bernie Sanders and his supporters for their tireless energy and their passion. We share a common goal. And together we'll defeat Donald Trump. We'll defeat him together," Biden said in Philadelphia.
In rhetoric and demeanor on Tuesday night, Biden seemed like the long-dominant front-runner of 2019 before his campaign took a nosedive in the early states. He evoked the need to unify the country to restore its soul. He warned that America's character was at stake and that another four years of President Donald Trump could permanently alter it.
Democratic groups that had been neutral in the battle are ready to dive into the battle."The math is now clear. Joe Biden is going to be the Democratic nominee for President and @prioritiesUSA is going to do everything we can to help him defeat Donald Trump in November. I hope others will join us in the fight,"
