the road to the White House heats up when he means uniting America.

Not so more division and hatred and anger.

I have zero doubt in my mind that together way are the campaign that could be Democrats going all out to win delegates seeking the party's presidential nomination.

President Trump already has his party's nomination and, true to form is not holding back Crazy.

Bernie's gonna go crazy crazy for sleepy Joe.

He doesn't even know where he is, what he's doing now.

On King five, we expect to see the first results from the Washington state presidential primary.

Who will claim victory as the two leading candidates slug it out.

State by state Pete Trump Way Need The largest voter turned out in the history of the United States of America?

This'd is a King five Special presentation decision.

2020 Washington State presidential primary and good evening ballots have been cast and ballot drop boxes closed just moments ago.

So counties all over the state are busy right now, counting the votes as the Democratic candidates pursue their party's nomination and President Trump seeks reelection.

We have a lot on the way for you right here for the next hour.

So we have your very first look at results right here in Washington State.

Live exclusive interviews from the Democratic and Republican state shares and our King five news analyst will be helping us go beyond the ballot tonight.

First, let's take a look at some of the results from some of the other states.

NBC is calling Joe Biden the winner in Michigan.

The big price tonight In the race for Democratic delegates, there are 125 delegates at stake.

And, as you can see, the vote tallies in Michigan, Joe Biden leading with 54% of the vote and a similar outcome here a least for now, the former vice president has been declared the winter in Missouri, as you can see, soundly beating Bernie Sanders, 68 pledged delegates are up for grabs in that state.

Biden's also won the primary today in Mississippi.

This adds to its strong showing in the South during Super Tuesday.

Just a week ago, there are 36 pledged delegates in the state of Mississippi.

Right now, North Dakota Democrats in the caucuses are showing Bernie Sanders with a lead right now.

14 pledged delegates on the line in that state tonight, a Democratic candidate needs 1991 pledged delegates to win the party's nomination.

So where do the candidates stand right now?

Delegates at this point were regenerating a Democratic base.

The Democratic Party, the African American community, high school educated folks like the ones I grew up with in Claymont.

Immoral neighborhood labor, suburban women veterans, firefighters, union members and so many more people of every economic station, the poor who are struggling and they are struggling in this environment.

But middle class worries about whether that they're gonna be able to hang on to stay there, maintain their economic secured.

They're the reason Jill and I got involved this in this campaign in the first place, and they're the reason why I became a Democrat so long ago, Joe Biden, along with his wife, Dr Joe Biden, speaking just moments ago in Philadelphia tonight.

So as we wait for the vote results in our state, we want to check in now with the King five.

Political analyst to get their perspective.

King Fives Chris Daniels is in our newsroom with Scott McClellan and Ron Sims.

So Chris gonna be a very busy night, one that's not turning out the way Sanders supporters had hoped.

No, not in Washington State and not across the country.

Welcome to our King five News Election Desk, where we are expecting those numbers to come in from Washington state and the secretary of state's office at any minute.

We do know that more than a 1,000,000 ballots were filed statewide for the Democrats, and we now have in my ear.

They tell me results out of King County, where we know that 450,000 ballots were going to be counted today and you can see the numbers on your screen again.

King County numbers on Lee, the people who filled out and check the box as Democrats Bernie Sanders, with a slight lead ever so slight at 33.6% over Joe Biden at 32 a half.

Remember, Elizabeth Warren dropped out after these ballots were mailed out along with Michael Bloomberg, and you can see they registered in the Washington State primary among Democrats, 15.2% for Warren Michael Bloomberg at just under 9%.

Again, this is the King County numbers only.

We are expecting many more numbers to pour in from across the state.

Our first numbers from Washington state will continue to talk about those is the numbers pour in here throughout the course of the hour, we have been talking a CZ well about what we've seen on the national level.

In a lot of focus on Michigan tonight, what's your initial take on this primary evening?

Well, this is another big night for Joe Biden.

Just like it wasn't Super Tuesday and falling on South Carolina.

You hear what Joe Biden was just saying when he was speaking?

He's trying to reach out to Sanders supporters.

Sanders campaign has said he's not going to be speaking tonight.

That is very telling that he is not gonna come out speak tonight.

That tells me that he's going in talking to his advisers and going to be talking his advisers more about what is the next step for his campaign.

And why would you continue if there's not a big win in Michigan for Joe Biden that set the tone for the night?

We'll see how Washington turns out right now.

It looks pretty close in the early numbers.

A lot of that appears probably is some of the early vote because you have worn and Bloomberg getting a significant chunk there.

And as these but voters who voted later after Super Tuesday.

Um, as those votes come in, let's see where things end up, Ron, you your former, as many people know Three term King County executive.

What's your take on just that margin in King County being so small, I was surprised, actually.

You would expect people to move more to the candidate.

We call it the most liberal of them all, and in this case it's awesome pragmatism.

So you see a really tight race between Sanders, inviting that it is pleasing.

King County is, as you know, people who are boomers, people who are millennials and a really, really good mix, people who have strong passions and feelings.

So I didn't expect it to be one candidate over the other.

I thought it was going to be really close, and we're seeing it is fairly clips.

And one thing that, you know, we just went through the numbers in Mississippi, in Michigan and Missouri all have been called for Joe Biden.

As you continue to look at the King County numbers on the Washington Democratic side in Mississippi, there is a question at this hour if Bernie Sanders will meet the 15% threshold.

Otherwise, that could be an all or nothing situation for Joe Biden.

In terms of all getting all of the delegates out of Mississippi, he's performing extremely well once again with African American voters roughly 85% of the ballots that have been counted down in Mississippi from African American voters going towards Joe Biden almost 2 to 1 margin in Michigan amongst early returns.

So that is gonna be something that will continue to watch a CZ.

We continue to get these ballot numbers in any final thoughts.

A CZ We talked about the washing state numbers.

Well, you know, I think that the polling last just last Friday showed that it was neck and neck.

And the big question was where those Warren supporters gonna go and what you saw in Michigan tonight.

It looks like from exit polling that some of those warden more there is Warner put.

Let's see if that's the case here in Washington State.

I think these early numbers is Ron was saying Deuce.
