DEARBORN, Mich. (AP) President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump won the Michigan primaries on Tuesday, further solidifying the all-but-certain rematch between the two men.
Biden defeated Minnesota Rep. Dean Phillips, his one significant opponent left in the Democratic primary. But Democrats were also closely watching the results of the uncommitted vote, as Michigan has become the epicenter for dissatisfied members of Bidens coalition that propelled him to victory in the state and nationally in 2020. The number of uncommitted votes has already far surpassed the 10,000-vote margin by which Trump won Michigan in 2016, a goal set by organizers of this years protest effort.
As for Trump, he has now swept the first five states on the Republican primary calendar. His victory in Michigan over his last major primary challenger, former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, comes after the former president defeated her by 20 percentage points in her home state of South Carolina on Saturday. The Trump campaign is looking to lock up the 1,215 delegates needed to secure the Republican nomination sometime in mid-March.
