2020 Tennessee primary election results

Former Vice President Joe Biden is the projected winner of Tennessee's Democratic caucus on Super Tuesday, based on an ABC News analysis of exit polls. The Volunteer State has 64 delegates in reach for the Democrats and 58 for the Republicans.

In Tennessee, most polling places opened at 7 a.m. ET. and closed by 8 p.m. ET, though some stayed open later due to an outbreak of tornadoes.

After deadly tornadoes ripped through the state, a Davidson County judge Tuesday afternoon ruled that polls could remain open until 8 p.m. CT at all sites across Nashville. Five additional polling sites remained open until 10 p.m. CT.
