Another day, another primary. Republicans and Democrats in New York vote today for their parties’ presidential nominees. Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are favored to win, but there’s a question of how many delegates they’ll earn. Trump’s haul will depend on the results in individual districts. As for Bernie, don’t get your hopes up for another Michigan-like upset. As Josh Voorhees explains, the laws in New York have made it harder for younger and independent-minded voters, who have favored Sanders, to participate.

Commentators and pundits are sure to have plenty to say about both races. You can watch the spin in real time as the results trickle in. Below are live tweets drawn from a list of top accounts curated by Slate. You’ll see left-leaning commentators on the left and right-leaning commentators on the right. Let the spin begin!
