Of the state's delegates, 21 will be awarded proportionately based on the results. The state's six super delegates have said they will announce who they are supporting after the votes are counted.

Both Clinton and Bernie Sanders have set up campaign offices and their campaigns have visited the state in the past couple of weeks.

Sanders held a rally and Clinton's husband, President Bill Clinton appeared at a rally at a middle school.

Even Donald Trump - who faces people on the ballot but no one actively campaigning against him - held a rally two weeks ago attended by thousands.
