There are still many more votes to be counted, but an analysis of what's been tallied so far shows Bernie Sanders in the lead in nearly every county in the Golden State.
The result is that Sanders has so far won 155 of the state's 271 delegates that have been awarded so far, the largest haul any candidate earned from a single state this Super Tuesday.
The delegate counts from Tuesday are still far from final, but the tallies so far show Biden claiming the overall lead for the first time. But with 144 California delegates still to be apportioned, Sanders can hope that he can cut into the deficit as late and provisional ballots are tallied in the coming weeks.
It's unclear if the boost from his California win will add up with other states to be enough for him to reach the 1,991 delegates needed for the nomination, but for now, thanks to California, the delegate race remains neck and neck.
