More people voted for Bernie in the Washington Primary than participated in the Democratic caucus.

We'll get the cries of how unfair it is to notice that fewer people participated in the caucus, but it is what it is. It is estimated that 230,000 people participated in the entire Washington State Democratic Caucus on March 27.

With 70% in, 305,173 people have voted for Bernie in the Washington Primary.

Current returns:

70% in

354,688 Clinton 54%
306,715 Sanders 46%

Bernie won the caucus 72-27.
