Live Blogging the June 7 Primaries

12:30 a.m Mountain Time

RealClearPolitics has called everything except CA for Clinton/Sanders. Trump won a clean sweep of all states voting. Nowhere was his percentage of the total less than 67% with most in the 70s and an 80% in NJ. Sanders won Montana and N. Dakota, Clinton won New Jersey, New Mexico, and S. Dakota. With 40% of California votes tallied, Clinton leads Sanders roughly 60% to 40%.

I'm disappointed in my native state - CA - which appears to be going for Clinton. I thought it would live up to its reputation for weirdness and choose Sanders.

RealClearPolitics has called New Jersey for Trump and Clinton. Plus Sanders has won the N. Dakota caucuses. New Mexico, Montana and S. Dakota have also been called for Trump. The Dem race not yet called in those states. Sanders and Clinton are close to each other in Montana, S. Dakota, and New Mexico, but she leads in all 3.
