Warnings from fire marshals? Alaska's FEELIN' THE BERN!
With nearly two-thirds of districts in Alaska reporting, Sen. Bernie Sanders is projected to win the states Democratic caucuses on Saturday in a landslide, pulling in 79 percent of the vote to Hillary Clintons 20 percent. The Associated Press called the race for Sanders at 1:21 p.m. Alaska time, about three hours after voting started.
Thousands of people headed to schools and community centers around the state Saturday morning to cast votes in the caucuses, which were organized by the Alaska Democratic Party. Unexpectedly high turnout at some locations led to long lines, delays and, at least in Anchorage, warnings from fire marshals.
The strong showing for Sanders came on the heels of a visit by his wife, Jane OMeara Sanders, and a Friday statement declaring his campaigns opposition to the proposed Pebble mine.
