Former Vice President Joe Biden won Maryland's primary Tuesday, racking up his latest state win on his way to the Democratic presidential nomination.
Biden defeated Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) in the contest. The Vermont senator dropped out of the presidential race in April but has said he will remain on primary ballots to influence the Democratic Party's platform during the convention in August.
The Associated Press called the race with Biden leading Sanders 85 percent to 5 percent with 5 percent of precincts reporting.
The election took place amid the coronavirus pandemic, which has led to a surge in mail-in ballots. It also took place as cities around the country, including Baltimore, have been hit by protests after the death of George Floyd while in police custody in Minneapolis.
