WASHINGTON - Joe Biden has formally clinched the Democratic presidential nomination, according to the Associated Press tally.
"It was an honour to compete alongside one of the most talented groups of candidates the Democratic Party has ever fielded - and I am proud to say that we are going into this general election a united party," Biden said in a statement.
