The 2020 Indiana Democratic presidential primary had been scheduled to take place on May 5, 2020, but was postponed to June 2 due to the COVID-19 pandemic,[1] alongside seven delayed and regular primaries on that day in the Democratic Party primaries for the 2020 presidential election. The Indiana primary was an open primary, with the state awarding 89 delegates to the 2020 Democratic National Convention, of whom 82 were pledged delegates allocated on the basis of the primary results.

Former vice president and presumptive nominee Joe Biden won the primary with more than 76% of the vote and all but two delegates, which went to senator Bernie Sanders, who missed the 15% threshold for statewide delegates with 13.6%.[2] Biden crossed the necessary majority of 1,991 delegates to officially win the Democratic nomination three days later during the vote count.[3]
