Bernie Sanders did well in the west picking up key victories in Washington and Alaska during the March 26 caucuses. Sanders won both states by a wide margin.
Sanders victory in Washington was especially key with 101 delegates at stake. Alaska by comparison had 16 delegates up for grabs. In the Democratic party, the delegates are split proportionally based on the results.
While Hillary Clinton still has a sizable lead in the delegate count, Sanders big night helped him begin to cut into Clinton’s lead ever so slightly. The Hawaii results have yet to be released, but we will update this page as soon as they are announced.
Here’s a look at the latest Democratic delegate count.
