The Democratic primary is open in Utah, so voters can cast a ballot regardless of party affiliation.
Some in the Republican majority have not fully embraced President Donald Trump, and moderates saw an opportunity to woo middle-of-the-road voters with a pitch that they offer the best chance to unseat the president.
Sanders has also won Vermont and Colorado.
Joe Biden has won Arkansas, Minnesota, Tennessee, Alabama, Oklahoma, North Carolina and Virginia.

Bernie Sanders is expressing “absolute confidence” that he’ll be victorious in his pursuit of the Democratic presidential nomination, despite losing many of the early Super Tuesday races to Joe Biden.

Thus far, Sanders had won two contests of the night: his home state of Vermont and Colorado.
