For those who haven't been following today, 3 states and 1 big state voted today.

Trump has taken Mississippi and Michigan, crushing the competition, widening his lead even further.

Rubio has bombed completely as expected in Michigan.

Hillary took Mississippi with over 80% of the vote, taking practically all of the 43 delegates.
Hillary is expected to take Michigan once the rural counties are tallied.

Though to be fair, Sanders never bothered with Mississippi and rest of the South outside of S.C.

Next week the big states are Ohio and Florida (Rubio's home state) and a few smaller ones.

I cal it inter-Tuesday
YAY TRUMP WINNING MICHIGAN AND MISSISSIPPI!! !
THE TRUMPMENTUM CONTINUES!! !
Take-all Tuesday is next week with Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, Northern Marianas, North Carolina and most of all Florida!! ! Florida is the only "pure" take all state because it's the only one where none of the delegates are RNC (all the other states give 3 to that).

Bernie edged out Hillary in Michigan, by ~20,000 votes to win the state.

Though Bernie will only win 1 more delegate than Hillary, due to 51/49 split of the vote.
Remember all Democratic primaries are proportional.

Since the Michigan primaries are open primaries, Bernie is believed to have won due to GOP voters crossing over and voting for him instead.

In the end Hillary widened her delegate lead by 39, due to blowing out Mississippi.


As it stands:

Hillary won 39 delegates in Mississippi and 64 delegates in Michigan
Bernie won 2 delegates in Mississippi and 66 delegates in Michigan
