WASHINGTON, March 17 -- Former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden will win Florida's Democratic primary of the 2020 presidential election, U.S. media outlets projected on Tuesday night.

Biden was expected to win the Democratic race with a comfortable lead in recent polls of the sunshine state.

As a battleground state for the 2020 presidential election, Florida is the biggest state to vote Tuesday, with 219 pledged delegates to this year's Democratic National Convention to award.

Biden is currently leading the Democratic primary in a one-on-one battle with Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont for the party's nomination to challenge sitting President Donald Trump, a Republican.
