Biden wins Guam presidential primary

Former Vice President Joe Biden won the Guam caucuses, securing him the delegates he needed to win the Democratic presidential nomination.

The Democratic Party of Guam announced Saturday that Biden received 270 votes, or 70 percent of the total share, compared with 118 for Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders (I). That gave Biden five of Guam’s seven pledged delegates, pushing him over the 1,991-delegate threshold to clinch the nomination.

Biden declared victory Friday evening as the preliminary results rolled in shortly before midnight.

"It was an honor to compete alongside one of the most talented groups of candidates the Democratic party has ever fielded — and I am proud to say that we are going into this general election a united party," Biden said in a statement Friday.
