What Went Down On Super Tuesday

The time differences in the results tonight are not very helpful to Sanders. Western states are where he’s strongest, but Biden’s first few East Coast wins are dominating television coverage right now. I wonder if that even ends up influencing some voters in places where people are still standing in line at the polls. (Cough cough, Los Angeles County!)

American Samoa has given Gabbard her first delegate to the national convention. The territory has six delegates and, unlike most other contests, it awards them all based on the territorywide vote.

For those wondering about the exact results in American Samoa, it was Bloomberg 175, Gabbard 103, Sanders 37, Biden 31 and Warren 5. Those are raw votes, not percentages. I would like to take this opportunity to say that I predicted yesterday in front of God and the whole FiveThirtyEight office that Bloomberg would finish first in American Samoa and Gabbard would finish second.
