JUST IN: Biden loses American Samoa to long-shot candidate Jason Palmer

The race was called on Tuesday night by the Decision Desk HQ, according to KFOR. The outlet confirmed the loss with the Democratic Party of American Samoa.

Palmer has qualified for the presidential ballot in just 16 states, according to a campaign release.

Palmer also campaigned in the territory of American Samoa.

Salote Iopu Finauga Mamea, 24, praised Palmer's efforts in the territory, "Jason is giving American Samoa the attention it deserves! Appreciate his efforts and concerns towards our island in addressing issues such as climate change, infrastructure, government fundings, healthcare, and education. From humble beginnings to making a difference."

"At 52, Palmer stands out as one of the youngest Democratic candidates on the ballot, offering a fresh perspective based on his experience as an entrepreneur and businessman," the release stated. "His platform is based on people-first conscious capitalism, modernizing our federal government, and reigniting the faith of young people and independents who have lost confidence in America's institutions."

Palmer has pitched himself as a moderate and younger Democratic alternative to Biden in the primary.
