Biden scores another Southern victory in Arkansas primary
Arkansas, like most of its neighbors, is going with former Vice President Joe Biden.
Outlets are projecting Biden to win the state's primary with 38 percent of the vote in. At the moment, Biden holds a nearly 13-point lead over Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), 33.9 percent to 21 percent.
Biden has mostly cleaned up in the South on Super Tuesday, also picking up projected victories in Virginia, North Carolina, Alabama, Tennessee and Oklahoma. And that's all just a couple of days after he stormed to a win in South Carolina on Saturday.
