ANI Washington

Bernie Sanders has won the West Virginia primary in the Democratic race for the presidential nomination, regaining momentum and leaving Clinton's backers uneasy.

Even thought the Vermont senator still trails Clinton in the overall contest for delegates but this win keeps his slim hopes alive.

The next Democratic primaries will be held in Kentucky and Oregon next Tuesday.

In the Republican race, Donald Trump was also declared the winner of the West Virginia minutes after the polls closed.

His last remaining rivals dropped out last week but remained on the ballot.

The New York businessman also picked up a win in the Republican only primary held in Nebraska. The next Republican primary will be held in Oregon next Tuesday.
