Looks like we're not learning much from the entrance poll. Big surprise.

Clark County is 51-47 Clinton, apparently.

Seems like any result from a 10-point Clinton win to a 6-point Sanders win is in the cards.

Looks like the CNN entrance polls are shifting in Sanders' favor.

I have a hard time believing that Sanders is winning Latinos by 11 percent. I could buy him being close to even with Clinton...

Congratulations, Republicans. There is no way Democrats win if Sanders is the nominee, even if he becomes president.

Excuse me, but isn't that a bit contradictionary?

No. A Sanders presidency would be absolutely disastrous for the left in the long term and in the short term.

We're getting a little ahead of ourselves, aren't we? If there's anything the 2016 election has taught us so far, it's that conventional wisdom is often completely wrong.

I'm waiting for everyone to call this race for Clinton, and then see Sanders improve his numbers in Washoe and Clark, which will cause everyone to call it for Sanders.

Clinton gains in Clark, Sanders gains in Washoe.

People are overreacting big time to slight changes.

I wouldn't call this race just yet. We don't know which votes are missing from Clark and Washoe. I agree, Clinton is more likely to win, but let's not get too reactionary.

Everyone spins everything. Iowa was good for Bernie because he was once down by 50. It was good for Clinton because it was supposed to be a great state for Bernie. New Hampshire was great for Bernie, because he crushed Hillary there. It was no big deal for Hillary, because it was practically a home state for Bernie. Coming close in Nevada is great for Bernie, because he can compete in a diverse state. For Hillary in Nevada, a win is a win.

This result doesn't really change the race much. Hillary's clearly favored, but she definitely doesn't have the nomination sewn up.

Sanders almost certainly didn't win Latinos, though I wouldn't be surprised if it ended up being somewhat close. Anyway, congrats, Clinton supporters.

If turnout is down compared to the last two primary seasons, what does that tell us about the chances of a democratic win in November?

Not much. There's more uncertainty on the Republican side this year, which wasn't the case in 2008.

Well, if it's any consolation for us Sanders supporters, assuming it's a 19-16 split in Nevada, Sanders will still be ahead of Clinton in pledged delegates (by 1.) Obviously, that won't be true after South Carolina, but still.
