Sanders won nine pledged delegates from the caucus compared to four for Biden, according to Decision Desk HQ and the University of Virginia Center for Politics.

Sanders' win included winning the vote of his brother, Larry Sanders, who lives in England and participated in the caucus.

But despite Sanders' victory, he's still far behind Biden in the delegate race. Biden swept multiple big states including Texas, Virginia, and North Carolina on Super Tuesday, won five out of the six contests of the March 10 primaries, and achieved a clean sweep of the Illinois, Florida, and Arizona primaries on March 17.
