President Joe Biden wins Democratic primary in Alaska

Washington, Apr 14 (Prensa Latina) President Joe Biden has won the Alaska Democratic presidential primary, in an electoral event considered by some observers to be purely formal.

Joe Biden was the only candidate on the ballot with Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.), a primary challenger who was also originally on the ballot, having dropped out last month.

In this regard, President Biden´s win will add at least most of the state´s 15 pledged delegates up for grabs to his total.

Biden mathematically clinched the Democratic nomination last month, paving the way for a rematch with former President Donald Trump in.

Alaska has historically voted Republican in presidential elections. The last Democratic presidential candidate to nab a win in the state was former President Johnson in 1964.
