Democratic Freak States Holy Saturday results thread (1st caucuses begin @1pmET)

Washington is a state that was made for Bernie Sanders. Even if it was a primary, this would probably be one of his best states, but good for him that he's (supposedly) winning by so much. He needs a big delegate lead for today to start to close the gap in pledged delegates.

[ElectionsGuy]

Sanders at 71% in Snohomish.

Is Seattle going to be the first major urban center to go for Bernie? Because pretty much all big cities that have voted so far have gone for Clinton, even Boston.

Its a caucus, but the Minneapolis-St Paul area went for Bernie. Also Denver. And if you consider Tulsa, Grand Rapids, Boise, Salt Lake City and Wichita major cities...

[ElectionsGuy]

King County down to 64/36 Sanders, could potentially swing the state below 70% for Sanders if the rest of the votes continue that way.

I've noticed that 538 isn't covering these contests. Why no love for the Pacific states, Nate?

538 dislikes Sanders. They think the Dem contest is already over and show more interest in the GOP race because Trump.

lol. They don't "dislike Sanders", they just accept the reality that the race is over.

lol. Sanders gets landslide victories in Idaho, Utah, Alaska, Washington, with likely victories in Hawaii and Wisconsin.

THE RACE IS OVER, NOTHING TO LOOK AT FOLKS.

Is it not? After tonight, Hillarys lead dips to 240ish delegates. Which states does Sanders have left where he can make up such a huge delegate difference?

Hillary is overwhelmingly likely to win the nomination, but the race is not over. Its not like the rest of the states don't matter, they do matter, they matter because they are a measure of how strong the progressive movement is within the Democratic party. It matters because there's a wing that will probably be called the 'Sanders' wing that should be much more influential then they were in the past.  A strong finish in this primary season can mean a lot, even if he's not the nominee.

Looks like a 60-65% Sanders win.

[ElectionsGuy]

Alaska 82-18 for Sanders!

[ElectionsGuy]

100% in Washington

Sanders: 19,159 (72.7%)
Clinton: 7,140 (27.1%)

[ElectionsGuy]

If the results aren't announced within the next 15 minutes I'm going to bed.

[ElectionsGuy]

138/141 precincts reporting according to that are Sanders victories.
