Biden Wins U.S. Virgin Islands Democratic Caucus

At the USVI Democratic Party Caucus on Saturday, President Joe Biden defeated Marianne Williamson by a margin of 99.006 percent to .004 percent, the U.S. Virgin Islands Democratic Party reported.

The caucus was conducted as part of the Democratic Party’s presidential primaries. This is the opportunity for voters in the Virgin Islands to nominate the Democratic presidential nominee and represent the Virgin Islands at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Illinois, said Stedmann Hodge, Jr., state chair, in a press release.

The caucus system determines the additional delegates that will represent the USVI at the Democratic National Convention. Voters select six candidates, three males and three females, and rank them by preference. Here’s how the votes will be counted: the two male candidates who receive the most votes are selected as delegates and two female candidates from the district of St. Thomas-St. John and one male candidate and one female candidate from the district of St. Croix.
