Joe Biden won Democratic presidential primaries in New York and Kentucky on Tuesday, the Associated Press reported, pro forma victories that come more than two weeks after the former vice president accumulated enough delegates to clinch the nomination.

New York had initially canceled its primary in response to fears about the coronavirus, but a federal appeals court last month ordered state Democratic officials to hold the vote on June 23 after presidential candidate Andrew Yang had challenged the cancellation.
