Voter antipathy toward the Republican president, particularly in the state’s fast-growing suburbs outside Washington, D.C., have helped fuel that shift.

Jennifer Wexton, who represents a district in the well-to-do northern Virginia suburbs, has said she won't support Sanders on Super Tuesday. The decision came after Republicans vying for their party's nomination to unseat her suggested she sided with Sanders on key issues.

Democratic Rivals’ Goal: Slow Bernie Sanders on Super TuesdayDemocratic presidential candidates are bound by a common goal: to stop Bernie Sanders from amassing a majority of delegates on Super Tuesday Doesn't matter who's in the lead. Democrats are so obsessed with making each other lose they forget they have to win. They should be trying to make a deal to be his VP instead. Bernie supporters are people who realize that they do not possess the skills to make it in life. They realize that they are not self-sufficient and must resort to government dependence to survive. It is a pretty sad thing for these people.
