The former vice president is now in a position to potentially win an outright majority of delegates to clinch the nomination.
Biden won more states and by wider margins than many observers expected, easily making up for his delegate deficit coming out of the first four early contests and putting him in position to potentially win the 1,991 delegates needed to secure an outright majority and clinch the Democratic nomination.
Biden's biggest wins, however, came in Southern states where strong support from African-Americans and suburban whites allowed him to run up the score. Biden stunned observers by winning Massachusetts, Elizabeth Warren's home state, where he’s projected to win 30 delegates to Sanders' 24 to Warren’s 10. And he won Minnesota, the home state of Sen. Amy Klobuchar, who dropped out of the race Monday to endorse him, helping him net a projected eight more delegates over Sanders.
