Hillary Clinton won the D.C. Democratic primary on Tuesday night, marking the end of 2016 primary politics and a turn to the general election.

The city is over 45 percent African-American and black Democrats have emerged as a critical voting bloc for the former secretary of state. She was also likely to be the favorite of many Democrats working in government.
