A head to head comparison of the Delaware 2020 Primary gives us an idea of the break down of the voters.

Joe Biden got 70% (82k) of the vote to beat Donald Trump (29k votes) by 25% and Bernie Sanders (7k votes) by 6%.


Joe Biden won all 3 counties whereas Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders won none of the counties in the state of Delaware.

These 3 counties play an important role in these primary elections. If a candidate, can get a sizable majority in the largest county (New Castle), it becomes very difficult to win majorities in the other two counties without voter outreach and increased voter participation in them.
