For one thing, they don't even have any forecasts for Alaska, Arkansas, District of Columbia, Hawaii, Idaho, and many more states that you "claim" Sanders will win.

Maybe you should check their website instead of relying on a third-party?

than Bernie. Even Even Bloomberg and Pete if the Fairfield County people vote in larger numbers than New Haven County. District-wise - the support will definitely change. Trump did surprisingly well in many parts of CT over Hillary. I was amazed at how many districts went for him but the #s in other areas kept CT in the blue. But overall - I would see Biden taking CT. It's just we don't vote until the end of April so it's hard to say who will still be in it.
