DETROIT – Joe Biden has won the Michigan Democratic Primary.

The Associated Press and NBC News have both called the race. Biden had a double-digit lead on Sen. Bernie Sanders for most of the night since polls closed. This is considered a major blow to Sanders’ campaign as he loses a state that he won in March 2016.
