So here are the totals with roughly 88% of the precincts in NV counted. You somehow below that because Bernie got 40% of the votes--35,512 votes--he is sweeping the field? This is a primary and a caucus at that. Only very motivated people vote. There are 691k registered Democrats in NV and 584k Republicans. With Independents, there are 1,804,000 registered voters in the state (see nvsos.gov for stats; click on "December 2019" to get the pdf file). Do you see what a small percentage of registered voters actually voted in this caucus?
