What Went Down In Michigan, Washington And Other Democratic Primaries

OK, so … do the Sanders supporters go gentle into the night? Do they enfold themselves in the bosom of the party and Biden? Go! Points if you say “bosom” in your answer.

Taking a closer look at the Mississippi results, I think there’s reason to think Sanders could gain a bit and put himself comfortably above the 15 percent threshold to get statewide delegates. In 2016, Sanders was relatively strong in the northeast corner of the state and along the Gulf Coast. And there are still a fair number of votes to report in those areas tonight. For example, Oxford’s Lafayette County, which gave Sanders 35 percent in 2016, has not reported any results yet.

We are up to 38 percent of precincts reporting in Mississippi, and there is no other way to put it: Biden is administering a beatdown to Sanders. Biden has 81 percent of the vote and Sanders has 15 percent.
