What Went Down In Michigan, Washington And Other Democratic Primaries

In previous primaries, both Biden and Sanders have been somewhat stronger among voters without a college degree than those with a degree. In Mississippi, at least, Biden and Sanders’s support doesn’t seem to differ much by voters’ education — Biden won among both groups by a similar (and wide) margin.

Sanders is leading by 5 points per Decision Desk in Kent County, Michigan, home to Grand Rapids. But that was one of Sanders’s better counties last time, as it went for him by about 25 points.

Oakland County, Michigan, is a well-to-do county in suburban Detroit — the kind of place you’d have expected Buttigieg or Klobuchar to do well. Biden winning it is yet another sign that he has inherited the college-educated white vote in this primary. (See also: Biden winning affluent suburbs of Boston last week.)
