Bernie Sanders projected to win Colorado Democratic caucus


Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) notched his fourth Super Tuesday victory in Colorado, winning the state's Democratic caucus, The Associated Press and other news outlets are projecting. With 93 percent of precincts counting, Sanders leads Hillary Clinton 59 percent to 40 percent. Colorado apportions its 66 delegates through a complicated process that could ultimately result in Clinton winning more delegates, The Denver Post reports. Sanders also won the Vermont and Oklahoma primaries on Tuesday, as well as the caucus in Minnesota.
