What Went Down In The Arizona, Florida And Illinois Primaries
Kane County in the Chicago exurbs just reported about 20,000 votes in Illinois, and Biden leads Sanders there 64-28.
As we get more Election Day vote in from Florida, both Biden and Sanders’s share of the vote is increasing at the expense of candidates like Bloomberg who dropped out. But the delegate math is remaining about the same with Biden on pace for a 100-delegate net gain out of Florida or so.
It’s worth noting that after today, the next vote in the Democratic presidential primary won’t happen until Saturday, April 4, when Alaska, Hawaii and Wyoming will hold party-run events. (Assuming Puerto Rico postpones its primary as expected.) But in response to the COVID-19 virus, Wyoming changed its caucus to a vote-by-mail election. Alaska and Hawaii haven’t called off the in-person parts of their vote like Wyoming, at least so far. The next regular, state-run primary isn’t until April 7, in Wisconsin.
