Looks like two landslides for Sanders and one for Clinton tonight. (But Clinton's is bigger in delegate terms than both of Sanders's put together: again, the Sun Belt is everything in elections, now.)

Because seriously -- totally his demographic.
Ed Suspicious

Recursion
(56,582 posts)12. The "white people" demographic
This is hardly a secret. Hell, he even does pretty well among white Hispanic people (Hispanic people can be of any race; most in the US are "white" .

Arizona has more delegates.
Recursion
(56,582 posts)6. Yep (nt)
Recursion
(56,582 posts)17. OTOH Washington State has 118 delegates
And I will be honestly shocked if he does worse than 75:25 there.

(1,681 posts)13. Up to 74 now.
If Arizona's margin closes a bit, it'll be a very good night for Bernie.
Recursion
(56,582 posts)14. Damn, with 80:20 in Idaho
The Northwest would be a frigging awesome firewall if a few more people lived there...

(56,582 posts)18. Both candidates got to play to their strengths today
I'll be interested to see how the delegate counts shake out.
