Ver­mont Sen­a­tor Bernie Sanders will like­ly wind up with a com­mand­ing vic­to­ry over for­mer Sec­re­tary of State Hillary Clin­ton in Wash­ing­ton’s 2016 Demo­c­ra­t­ic pres­i­den­tial precinct cau­cus­es, ear­ly results sug­gest.

Wash­ing­ton Demo­c­ra­t­ic Cau­cus­es — Pre­lim­i­nary Results
Sat­ur­day, March 26th, 2016

The state par­ty has an offi­cial results page pow­ered by the Asso­ci­at­ed Press.

“Wash­ing­ton, thank you for your huge sup­port! It is hard for any­body to deny that our cam­paign has the momen­tum,” the Sanders cam­paign tweet­ed.

The Clin­ton cam­paign has not yet react­ed to the mass medi­a’s pro­jec­tions that Sanders will win Wash­ing­ton (as well as Alas­ka), but ear­li­er today, it was urg­ing sup­port­ers in those states plus Hawaii to turn out for Hillary.

Clin­ton’s cam­paign antic­i­pat­ed that Sanders could do well in Wash­ing­ton, Alas­ka, and Hawaii, which are all cau­cus states.

Wis­con­sin and Wyoming will be the next states to hold nom­i­nat­ing con­tests, on Tues­day, April 5th, and Sat­ur­day, April 9th.

After that, the race shifts to the Atlantic seaboard, with con­tests in New York, Con­necti­cut, Delaware, Mary­land, Penn­syl­va­nia, and Rhode Island.

Con­grat­u­la­tions to Bernie Sanders on his impres­sive vic­to­ry in Wash­ing­ton State, and kudos to every­one who had a hand in mak­ing Wash­ing­ton’s Demo­c­ra­t­ic pres­i­den­tial precinct cau­cus­es hap­pen this morning.
