Barack Obama has declared himself "the Democratic nominee for President of the United States".
The claim came on the last day of primary season, as projections showed he had earned enough delegates to clinch the nomination.
Of the two states that voted, Montana was won by Mr Obama, while in South Dakota, Mr Obama's rival Hillary Clinton was victorious.
In a speech to supporters, Mrs Clinton refused to concede the election.
Speaking in New York, Mrs Clinton congratulated Mr Obama and his supporters "for all that they have accomplished".
But she stressed that she was making "no decisions tonight" about her continued presence in the race.
