The general election campaign will last about eight months.President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump clinched their parties' presidential nominations, setting up a general election rematch.President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump have clinched the Democratic and Republican presidential nominations, respectively, after another round of voting on Tuesday, ABC News projects based on the ABC News delegate estimate.
The rematch between Biden and Trump is expected to revolve around the same swing states and similar issues as in 2020, including immigration, the economy, and democratic values. Democratic primary elections were held in three states on Tuesday: Georgia, Mississippi and Washington as well as in the Northern Mariana Islands and in voting by Democrats living abroad.
Trump had 1,078 delegates heading into Tuesday's round of contests, according to ABC News' estimate, so he had to get 137 more to cross the threshold -- which he did when Washington reported its results. Overall, 161 delegates were up for grabs on Tuesday.
