Fivethirtyeight is not bothering with live coverage tonight.

Yes it's the night before Easter, and yes the Republicans aren't voting, but that wouldn't stop them from live coverage if they thought anything noteworthy was going to happen tonight. They know perfectly well that Bernie was always going to blow out these three states, and that it won't make one bit of difference to the inevitable end result.

over on MSNBC. They've stopped primary coverage in favor of their regularly scheduled things around six, but some of the anchors are still mentioning that damn burn. I only continue to watch for Joy-Ann Reid and Chris Matthews, who despite being polarizing, is one of the few people willing to take Sanders and his surrogates to task over their statements. The look on Nina Turner's face when he asked her when did she learn that Bernie Sanders was a Civil Rights legend (this was when they were inflating his year or so of service before the SC primary) was priceless.
