Sanders was running on momentum after securing wins in several of the early voting states. Then the dynamics of the race changed drastically.
Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont suspended his presidential bid on Wednesday, essentially handing the nomination to former Vice President Joe Biden.
The former vice president then emerged as the Democratic frontrunner after his make-or-break win in South Carolina in late February. He built off that momentum to sweep 10 of the 14 states in play on Super Tuesday on March 3. His campaign dealt a humbling blow to Sanders in the primaries that followed, garnering victories in states that the Vermont senator had won in 2016.
"Senator Sanders and his supporters have brought a remarkable passion and tenacity to all of these issues. Together they have shifted the fundamental conversation in this country," Biden said via live-stream from his home in Delaware."So let me say especially to the young voters who have been inspired by Sen. Sanders, I hear you. I know what to stake. I know what we have to do.
