WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden has formally clinched a second straight Democratic nomination.
Now his party’s presumptive nominee, he faces an all-but-certain rematch with former President Donald Trump.
Biden clinched the nomination Tuesday after winning enough delegates in Georgia. His nomination will become official at the Democratic National Convention to be held in Chicago in August.
Biden, who mounted his first bid for president 37 years ago, did not face any serious Democratic challengers to his run for reelection at age 81.
That’s despite facing low approval ratings and a lack of voter enthusiasm for his presidency, driven in part by his age.
