Trump, appearing on the ballot for the first time since his historic conviction for felony crimes, won primaries in New Mexico, where voters could opt for his rivals who have since dropped out, and Montana and New Jersey, where he was unopposed.
Biden won Democratic primaries in New Mexico, South Dakota, New Jersey, Montana and Washington, DC.
Trump and Biden were both expected to easily prevail in all of Tuesday’s contests as the last major candidates still running. But with many Americans saying in polls that they don’t want a rematch of the 2020 election, Tuesday’s results were watched for voter concerns about their choices as November’s election barrels closer.
Trump’s domination during the GOP primary season has also been shadowed by support from a minority of GOP voters for former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley, who dropped out in March.
