(597 posts)The Georgia primary alone next Tuesday the 9th awards 120 delegates with 105 pledged and West Virginia awards an additional 34 delegates with 28 pledged. In other words, Joe Biden wraps up the nomination on Tuesday! 😄

(8,974 posts)I had thought the primary, scheduled for 4/28, had been cancelled, but when I applied for a mail-in ballot, they sent me a ballot for the presidential primary, as well as the June 23 primary for state and local offices. So, there appears to be a NYS presidential primary after all. Fine with me. I'll vote for Democrats all day and all night, if allowed. And all their delegates too.
