Biden Wins Alaska Primary 3 Days After Sanders Suspends Campaign (55.3 to 44.7%)
NBC New York ^ | 4/12/20

Joe Biden has won the Alaska Democrats' party-run presidential primary, beating Sen. Bernie Sanders days after Sanders suspended his campaign.

Biden gets 11 delegates and Sanders gets four. Sanders would have won more delegates but after ending his bid for the nomination last week, Sanders is no longer eligible to win delegates based on the statewide vote in primaries and caucuses, according to Democratic National Committee rules. Sanders is, however, still eligible to win delegates based on vote totals in individual congressional districts, which is why the AP allocated four delegate to Sanders in Alaska.

Overall, Biden has 1,228 delegates and Sanders has 918, according to the count by The Associated Press.

What Democrat vote? The Party Leaders have chosen, if you are a Democrat you are allowed to vote the Party only. You silly dweebs cannot be trusted to vote.

In other words Biden almost lost the vote when there was nobody else to vote for.

Does anyone else think it odd, that Wisconsin had their election last Tuesday, but officials there decided not to release any election returns yet? I think the official explanation had to do with allowing time for the mail in ballots to be received and counted??? But isn’t that an odd explanation of embargoing all returns?

He should have gotten more considering Sanders isn’t even running.

That that many people would vote against Biden for a candidate that’s not even running speaks volumes.

If Bernie Sanders got anywhere near 44.7% after suspending his campaign what does that say about Joe Biden?

Not much. I mean, a convicted felon literally sitting in prison named Keith Judd got over 40% of the primary vote vs. Barack Obama in West Virginia in 2012.

Didn’t exactly mean much come November.

He got 55% of the vote with no competitors? I’m impressed.

When informed of his Alaska primary victory, Mr. Biden voiced his immense gratitude, and promised the people of Alaska that, if he is elected President, he will immediately propose to Congress that the United States purchase Alaska from Russia, and make it the 51st State...

“and make it the 51st State...”
