President Biden won the Democratic presidential primary in four states on Tuesday.
The Associated Press predicted the president would win Arizona, Illinois, Kansas and Ohio.
Biden’s victory comes a week after he secured the 2024 Democratic presidential nomination with a landslide victory in last week’s election.

Hours after Biden became the Democratic presidential nominee, former President Donald Trump secured the 2024 Republican nomination and became the Republican presidential nominee.
Biden and Trump will officially become the major party nominees at the Democratic and Republican national nominating conventions this summer.
A rematch in 2024 (which polls show most Americans have zero enthusiasm for) is now firmly in the general election stage.

The general election campaign began earlier than at any point in the last 20 years. John Kerry of Massachusetts secured the 2004 Democratic nomination in early March, running against Republican President George W. Bush.
The showdown between Biden and Trump in November will be the first in a White House race since 1956, when Republican President Dwight D. Eisenhower defeated former Democratic Illinois Gov. Adlai Stevenson in their second match. It will be a rematch.
