  • Bernie Sanders is a longshot to win the 2020 Missouri Democratic Primary on Tuesday -- his +700 odds imply only a 11.3% probability of winning.
  • It's Joe Biden who is favored to win the most delegates in Missouri with -3333 betting odds that translate to a 87.8% implied probability.
  • Missouri is one of six states voting in primaries or caucuses on Tuesday, March 10.

The 2020 Democratic Primary marches on with six more states casting their votes on Tuesday: Idaho, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, North Dakota and Washington.

There are 352 delegates up for grabs between the six states, or 8.8% of the 3,979 total. Note that in the Democratic primary, each state has a 15% vote threshold for a candidate to receive delegates. So, for example, if Joe Biden is the only candidate in Missouri to get 15% or more of the votes, he will get all of the state's delegates. If two candidates both receive above 15%, the delegates are divided according to vote share.

Coming off a bevy of Super Tuesday wins, former vice president Biden leads the field in overall delegates (664) as well as the popular vote.
