President Joe Biden won the symbolic Democratic primary in New Hampshire through a write-in effort, despite not actively campaigning in the state.

This victory solidifies his hold on the Democratic nomination for a second term.

Biden wrote, “I want to thank all those who wrote my name in this evening in New Hampshire,” in a statement.

“It was a historic demonstration of commitment to our democratic process,” he continued.

Biden asked those “who share our commitment to core values of our nation — our Democracy, our personal freedoms, an economy that gives everyone a fair shot — to join us as Americans.”

The New Hampshire race will likely not contribute to delegate allocation due to a rule violation, as the state proceeded with its primary against a new plan favored by Biden.

The contest was overshadowed by the Republican primary, where former President Donald Trump secured another victory.
