Joe Biden won enough delegates on Saturday to become the Democratic presidential nominee in November’s election against President Donald Trump, NBC News projects.

To win the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination on the first ballot at the party's convention, a candidate must receive support from a majority of pledged delegates — at least 1,991 of the total 3,979 pledged delegates available.

Heading into the weekend, Biden had already amassed a projected 1,970 pledged delegates after winning a series of Democratic primaries on June 2.

The presumptive nominee will be officially selected by delegates at the Democratic National Convention, which was postponed amid the coronavirus outbreak and will now be held August 17-20 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Within days, both Klobuchar and Buttigieg dropped out of the race and endorsed Biden, setting the stage for a Super Tuesday near-sweep by Biden, who emerged from the big day of primary voting with more delegates than any other candidate

Those projected wins put him over the threshold of delegates needed to officially become his party’s nominee
