What Went Down On Super Tuesday
With most of the vote recorded in Virginia, it appears that almost all the delegates will be allocated to Biden and Sanders — with Warren possibly picking up one or two. Candidates must win at least 15 percent of the vote statewide or in a congressional district to be eligible for delegates.

One thing to note about public views of Sanders is that he generates more strong support than Biden does. In a recent NBC/Wall Street Journal poll, 16 percent of people were enthusiastic about Sanders as president, whereas for Biden the number was just 6 percent. (And for Trump? 27 percent.)
Oklahoma is the first state that Sanders won in 2016 that he lost in 2020.
