Bernie Overwhelms Hillary in Critical Nevada Caucus - Takes Delegate LEAD! [View all]



Bernie Sanders supporters turned out for their candidate whereas Hillary Clinton supporters left her high and dry in the remaining caucus process in Nevada, leaving her with a stunning loss in delegates that may cause Nevada to flip to a Bernie state. Hillary Clinton may have come out on top in February, (in the votes that select some of the delegates) but she didn't win all of Nevada's delegates. That's why Bernie Sanders’ supporters had to make their presence known on Saturday, to claim their portion of the delegate pie.

Sanders 2958 delegates
Clinton 2390 delegates

A turning point -- and Wisconsin voters have a chance to make the next turn happen after Washington, Alaska, Hawaii, Utah and Idaho have sent signals to America that Hillary is NOT the candidate of choice to beat Republicans in November in the General Election.

Report was treated as breaking news in Nevada as this part of the process largely goes unnoticed but it is a critical part of the process that apportions delegates for the final tabulation.
