What is important to understand about Saturday is the Washington Democratic Party will not be announcing a winner. Officials said the purpose of Saturday is to elect 27,170 delegates from the precinct caucuses statewide. That number will be winnowed down at county and congressional district caucuses in May.

What will be learned Saturday is how many of those 27,170 delegates are backing Sanders or Clinton. Party officials think initial results will start coming in around 2 p.m. and every thing done by dinner.

5. Initial Washington Caucus Results Show Bernie Sanders Winning in a Landslide

After blockbuster turnout, Democrats in Washington State are overwhelmingly favoring Bernie Sanders to be the party’s presidential nominee.

The “political revolution” as the Vermont senator describes it comes in the form of high voter turnout in primary and caucus states. Washington certainly appears to be doing it’s part, judging by initial caucus results and turnout numbers. Senator Sanders needs to win at least 60 percent of the vote in the remaining Democratic contests, and he appears to be on track to outpace that goal in Washington.

According to on-the-ground reports tweeted by Washington caucus-goers, Sanders is winning by large margins, and in some cases, sweeping precincts entirely, denying any delegates to Hillary Clinton. If Bernie Sanders wins statewide by 85.1 percent or more, he will render Clinton non-viable as a candidate, meaning he would win all 101 of the Evergreen State’s delegates.

At this precinct level. Remains to be seen how the county/state level caucuses will aggregate the delegate counts in May and June.
