UPDATE: Washington State has Biden and Sanders TIED with well over half the vote in…

by The Right Scoop

Joe Biden has won the first two states of the night to vote in the 5 Democratic primaries and one caucus:

With less than 1% of the vote in, Biden is winning in Mississippi with 83.2% of the vote, with Sanders barely getting 11%. Mississippi has 36 delegates available.

In Missouri, Biden is winning with 46% with less than 1% of the vote in, and Sanders only getting 18% there. Missouri has 68 delegates available.

The polls have also closed in Michigan but the vote is much closer there, with Biden having only a roughly 10 point lead over Sanders right now, 52-42, with 24% of the vote in. Michigan is huge because there are 125 delegates available and Sanders wants as big a chunk of those delegates as he can get.

UPDATE: Biden wins Michigan!

Fox News has also called Michigan for Biden, who is currently leading 53-42 over Bernie in Michigan with almost 60% of the vote in. Remember, Michigan is the big state of the night with 125 delegates.

With 3 out of 6 states going to Biden, it’s not looking good for Bernie tonight…

UPDATE 2: There aren’t any new state winners yet. Washington State with its 89 delegates has both Biden and Sanders tied at 33% a piece with 68% of the vote in. Idaho, with its 20 delegates, has Biden leading by about 7 points, with 46% of the vote in. And lastly little old North Dakota, with its 14 delegates, has Sanders dominating by 12 points with 32% of the vote in. So, Sanders may yet get win a state or two yet.
