Why did bernie only win 25 delegates in washington when 101 are at stake?

Is that just a typo? Or will more be added later?

    I'm not sure why it's only 25. Hillary should also not have only 9. Since the total delegate count is a number close to 100, the actual amount they should get is close to the percentage of the vote they got, so Bernie should have 74, and Hillary 27. It's simple math, I don't see why there would be a delay, except maybe they need to figure out the specific delegates that go to who. Still, the news reporters could report the number, since that doesn't change based off of the specific delegates.

    They already have all of Hawaii's and Alaska's divided up too, so I don't see it making any sense that they wouldn't for Washington.

    Washington doesn't officially assign all the delegates until June but since delegates are awarded proportionally Bernie should get 74 while Hillary gets 27.

    They're sorting out the delegates from district to district. They'll have the full delegates count soon.

    He wins but looses, see the pattern.
