Biden ‘confident’ he’s the Democratic nominee, despite Sanders claiming he still has 'path'

Sen. Bernie Sanders argues that there’s still “a narrow path” for him to win the Democratic presidential nomination– but front-runner Joe Biden disagrees, saying he feels “confident” he will be the party’s nominee.
Starting with his landslide victory in South Carolina one month ago, Biden has crushed populist senator from Vermont and built up a large lead in the crucial race for convention delegates, making him the all-but-certain Democratic nominee.
Biden also enjoys a massive wave of support from former 2020 rivals and leading Democratic members of Congress, governors, unions and other groups, as much of the party consolidated behind the former vice president’s White House bid.
Sanders, however, said Monday in an appearance on "Late Night with Seth Meyers" that “we’re about 300 delegates behind. Biden has 1,200. We have 900. There is a path.”
The progressive champion who’s making his second straight White House run then acknowledged, “It is admittedly a narrow path.”
