Mike Bloomberg Snags<br />First Win in American Samoa On Super Tuesday, presidential<br />candidate Mike Bloomberg<br />officially won the first contest<br />of his presidential campaign. With 49.9 percent of the<br />votes, Bloomberg was awarded<br />five of the six delegates belonging<br />to American Samoa. Representative Tulsi Gabbard, who was born<br />in American Samoa, was awarded one delegate,<br />having collected 29.3 percent of the votes. Falling short of the 15 percent threshold needed to claim any<br />delegates were Bernie Sanders with 10.5 percent, Joe Biden<br />with 8.8 percent and Elizabeth Warren with 1.4 percent. Despite entering Super Tuesday at the<br />bottom of the Democratic pack, Bloomberg<br />has repeatedly reassured his supporters<br />that he does not intend to drop out. He further emphasized his intent to push forward<br />at a Tuesday night rally in Florida, saying he remained<br />the best candidate to defeat Trump. Michael Bloomberg,<br />via PBS NewsHour
