Clinton won in New Jersey, New Mexico, South Dakota and was leading in California, while Sanders notched victories in Montana and the North Dakota caucuses.

“Tonight’s victory is not about one person; it belongs to generations of women and men who sacrificed and made this moment possible,” Clinton told a cheering crowd in Brooklyn, N.Y., exactly eight years after she fell short in her first quest for the presidency to Barack Obama.

She thanked Sanders for the “vigorous debate” he and his supporters have spurred on economic inequality, calling it “good for the Democratic Party.”

Clinton’s campaign and other Democrats point out that at this point, her lead over Sanders is nearly three times larger than President Obama’s was over Clinton in their 2008 primary fight. With her wins Tuesday, she also claimed a majority of the pledged delegates throughout the campaign cycle.
