The second round of Super Tuesday polls for the Democrat presidential nominations have closed, with mainstream outlets calling most states for establishment favorite Joe Biden.
At stake are 52 delegates in Alabama, 31 in Arkansas, 24 in Maine, 91 in Massachusetts and 37 in Oklahoma. Voting was extended in some Tennessee counties (64 delegates) due to disruptions from Monday night’s tornadoes.
Alabama, Arkansas and Oklahoma were called for Biden within minutes of the polls closing. Sanders was favored to win in Maine, while Elizabeth Warren’s campaign had to win Massachusetts in order to stay in the race.
Meanwhile, Mike Bloomberg has picked up five delegates in American Samoa, with Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) qualifying for the next debate by getting one – unless the DNC changes the rules again, that is.
