Biden and Sanders fought for delegates in 14 states and the territory of American Samoa, where the “Super Tuesday” vote was held — the most important day of the primary election season.

However, the pearl in the crown of the “Super Tuesday”, California, where 415 delegates from the Democratic Party Congress were at stake, went to Sanders.

Biden won in another large state, Texas, which sends 228 delegates to the convention.

The Vermont Senator opened the evening of counting as the undisputed Democrat leader, winning a landslide victory in his home state, Colorado and Utah.

Biden won in Massachusetts and Oklahoma, where another presidential candidate, Senator Elizabeth Warren, was born, as well as in the southern states, including Virginia, Alabama, North Carolina, Tennessee and Arkansas. This was a signal that he was strengthening his leadership among the democratic establishment.

Biden also won in Minnesota - the state that Sanders hoped to get in his piggy bank, which testified to the popularity of the former vice president throughout the country.

In Maine, the winner is not yet determined.

“People are talking about revolution. We founded the movement, ”Biden said in California.

Sanders attacked Biden in a victorious speech in Vermont. “You can't defeat Trump with the same old politics,” he said.

He added: “One of the candidates led the opposition to the war in Iraq,” the senator from Vermont announced. “You look at him.” Another candidate voted for the Iraq war. ”

Mike Bloomberg won only one victory - in American Samoa.

The former mayor of New York will review his campaign on Wednesday, March 4, said a source close to him on condition of anonymity.

Elizabeth Warren has not won any victories yet, even in her native Massachusetts.

In the person of Biden and Sanders, the Democrats are presented with a clear choice of which candidate they want to stand against President Donald Trump in November.

Sanders is a 78-year-old democratic socialist who relies on the energetic coalition of his party's left flank, supporting his long-standing struggle to transform the American political and economic system.

Biden, 77, is considered the leader of the Washington Democratic Party, which emphasizes a pragmatic approach to key political issues such as health and climate change.

According to the Associated Press, Biden currently holds the votes of 453 delegates to the party congress, and Sanders - 382.

However, it is expected that the results may change dramatically in the following hours. Some candidates hold around 15 percent of the vote. In case of overcoming this threshold, they also receive the corresponding number of delegates.

To be nominated from a party, a candidate must receive the votes of a 1991 delegate, which is the majority of 3979 congress delegates who are required to vote in accordance with the results of the primaries.

The names of official candidates for the US presidency from the main parties we will learn in the summer of 2020. The National Convention of Democrats ends July 16, Republicans - August 27. The presidential elections themselves will be held on November 3.
