It was a busy weekend for presidential politics.
Democrat Bernie Sanders racked up high-margin victories in three states Saturday. Alaska, Hawaii and Washington State have helped Sanders cut Hillary Clinton's pledged-delegate lead by 20%.
Sanders has clinched the last six out of seven contests, and his campaign hopes the momentum will continue into Wisconsin — the birthplace of the progressive movement.
For more on the state of the Sanders campaign, Take Two spoke to Thad Kousser, professor of political science at UC San Diego.
