Six more states hold primaries

Turnout in Washington state’s primary election may take a hit from the coronavirus outbreak. Voters are also headed to the polls in Idaho, Michigan, Mississippi, and Missouri, and North Dakota will caucus on Tuesday.

What’s at stake in this contest? Following a show of strength on Super Tuesday, former Vice President Joe Biden leads rival Sen.
