The 2020 Puerto Rico Democratic presidential primary took place on July 12, 2020, a Sunday, in the Democratic Party primaries for the 2020 presidential election.[1] The primary was originally scheduled for March 29, 2020, but was postponed twice because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Puerto Rico primary was an open primary, with the territory awarding 58 delegates, of which 51 were pledged delegates allocated on the basis of the results of the primary.
Presumptive nominee and former vice president Joe Biden won with 56%, but lost a rather unusual number of votes and delegates in the penultimate primary to withdrawn candidates, senator Bernie Sanders and former mayor Michael Bloomberg. With both of them winning around 13% and respectively five and two delegates on the district-level, together they received 26% of the vote, and spoiled ballots (blank ballots, as well as undervotes and overvotes) also made up more than 10% of the votes.
