What Went Down On Super Tuesday

A few weeks ago, Sanders cleaned up in Durham, New Hampshire, which is home to the University of New Hampshire. That makes sense — he does especially well with younger voters. So how’s he doing in college towns tonight? Orono, which is home to a campus of the University of Maine, just gave Sanders 53 percent of the vote. He won 41 percent of the vote in Boulder County, Colorado, home to the University of Colorado. Sanders also won Charlottesville, home to the University of Virginia, edging out Biden 34-32. But Biden triumphed in Montgomery County, Virginia, which is home to Virginia Tech. No word yet from Amherst or Dartmouth, Massachusetts, which are home to University of Massachusetts campuses.

Part of what the wins in Oklahoma and Arkansas show is that Biden is stronger with working-class white voters than Clinton was four years ago. That could scramble the map a bit. The counter is that Sanders is quite a bit stronger with Hispanics than he was four years ago.

That makes six wins for Biden, though that might be seven if Minnesota really is his, too.
