Sen. Bernie Sanders nearly swept Vermont's presidential primary in 2016, but only won about half of the votes this year, mirroring what seems to be an emerging preference among Democratic voters for a more moderate candidate.

The progressive candidate lost out on earning all of Vermont's Democratic delegates due to competition from former vice president Joe Biden, who has gained serious momentum in his presidential campaign with notable Super Tuesday wins.

Sanders won about half of the votes for the Democratic presidential primary in Vermont, followed by Biden, who won 22% of the vote. Sen. Elizabeth Warren came in a distant third.

Sanders won 11 delegates, while Biden won five.

President Donald Trump won 88.7% of Republican votes.

In Vermont, 16 Democratic and 17 Republican pledged national convention delegates were up for grabs. Delegates nominate presidential candidates at conventions of major political parties.

Sanders won the 2016 Vermont Democratic primary with 85.7% of the vote. Trump, then a presidential candidate, won Vermont's Republican primary with 32.7% of the vote.
