Campaigning this time as the loyal successor to the nation's first black president, Clinton held off a surprisingly strong challenge from Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders to break through.
Clinton reached the 2,383 delegates needed to become the presumptive nominee with a decisive victory in Puerto Rico and a burst of last-minute support from party insiders known as superdelegates.
For her part, Clinton tweeted patience ahead of Tuesday's primaries.

Two days of election contests remain. On Tuesday, voters in six states — California, Montana, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Dakota and South Dakota — head to the polls, with 694 delegates up for grabs. The Washington, D.C., primary is a week later, with 26 delegates at stake.
Even if Clinton were to lose all the remaining contests, she would continue to comfortably pad her delegate lead above the 2,383 threshold. That's because Democrats award pledged delegates in proportion to the vote, so even the loser gets some.
Sanders, meanwhile, would need to win 814 delegates to reach 2,383. That's no longer possible — only 813 pledged delegates and uncommitted superdelegates remain.
