I could be wrong, but I believe that in Washington State, the Democrats ignore the results of the primaries and instead divide all of the delegates based on caucuses. These caucuses have already been held earlier this month. As to why the Dems hold primaries despite all the delegates already being divided... I have no idea; I'll leave that for someone else to answer.
