Does anyone have a simple Democratic Primary turnout chart of 2008 vs 2016, state by state

[tomm2thumbs]

Trying to figure out where the major differences are coming from -- figured someone has already researched this and it has been put online somewhere. I thought some states actually had record turnouts, so am a bit confused.

Democrats were down 7 million votes 2008 to 2016 in the primaries. I'm guessing there just wasn't as much interest this time around, or there has been some changes in population, but still want to see how this is reflected in state-by-state.

Bernie/Hillary Primary 2016 - 28,092,268 total primary votes
Obama/Hillary Primary 2008 - 35,029,294 total primary votes


I've looked but cannot find chart with ALL state stats then vs. now (found this one, but only Southern states)

thanks for any links you know of...
