In Wayne County in the Democratic race, Sanders beat Clinton by a vote of 1,971 to 1,842. In the Republican race, Trump got 6,364, Senator Cruz received 1,855, and Kasich got 948.

The previous week, in Sullivan County, NY, Sanders bested Clinton with a vote of 2,958 to 2,369. In the Republican race, Trump polled 2,742, Kasich got 687 and Cruz received 534.
