“It was an honor to compete alongside one of the most talented groups of candidates the Democratic party has ever fielded — and I am proud to say that we are going into this general election a united party,” Biden said in a statement Friday.

“I am going to spend every day between now and Nov. 3 fighting to earn the votes of Americans all across this great country so that, together, we can win the battle for the soul of this nation, and make sure that as we rebuild our economy, everyone comes along,” he added.

Sanders has already suspended his campaign and endorsed Biden but is remaining on upcoming primary and caucus ballots to try to rack up delegates in an effort to influence the Democratic Party’s platform at its convention this summer.

Biden will officially accept the Democratic nomination at the party’s national convention in August.
