WASHINGTON — It's Super Tuesday! Virginia is one of 14 other states that will vote on the fate of the Democratic candidate who will go against President Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election. The commonwealth has 99 pledged delegates, the fourth-largest prize of the primary states voting on Tuesday.
Polling places opened their doors at 6 a.m. on Tuesday and lines were already seen forming to cast ballots.
In Virginia, 14 names are listed on the ballot, including several candidates who have since dropped out of the race. With three candidates -- Klobuchar, Steyer and Buttigieg -- dropping out just days before the primary, some voters expressed indecisiveness heading to the polls.

Other voters said that the week of shakeups helped narrow down who they wanted to vote for.
"There was a cluster that I thought were kind of similar, now they've sort of coalesced," Jim Lawless said.
