Related: About this forumBernie Sanders Looks To Be Heading For A Landslide Win In Washington
Sanders has been drawing big crowds in the state, so he was expected to do very well. However, it looks like Washington will be a blowout win for the Sanders campaign.
Sen. Sanders is very strong with Independent voters, so open caucuses benefit his campaign. Sanders needs to win 58% of the remaining pledged delegates to catch up to Hillary Clinton, and it looks like he is going to blow past his needed number in Washington today.

I have been saying for weeks, those who want to win and really fear Republicans winning the GE. Bernie is winning BIG among Independents which are the LARGEST voting block in the US.

It's still sitting at 50/50 with 6% reporting.

ouch.
Could it be that her supporters didn't turn out because the media has been telling them it is over?

It's more reliably blue than Oregon.
