Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders has won the Michigan Democratic primary, according to the Associated Press, narrowly defeating Hillary Clinton in a stunning upset.

Clinton had been widely expected to win the Rust Belt state, having led Sanders by double digits in polls leading up to Tuesday's primary.

But the Sanders campaign deemed Michigan a "critical showdown," and aggressively attacked Clinton for her policies on trade and her ties to Wall Street. Sanders is hoping his win in the delegate-heavy Midwestern state - second in delegates only to Texas so far - will show that his populist economic message can resonate elsewhere.

Clinton made her calls to address the water crisis in Flint, a predominantly African-American city, the focus of her pitch to Michigan voters. Although she was endorsed by the state's two U.S. senators, Democrats Debbie Stabenow and Gary Peters, Michigan's unions did not coalesce behind either candidate.

Exit polls show the electorate broke along lines similar to previous primary contests: Sanders outperformed Clinton among men and younger voters, while she did better among older voters and women.

But Sanders bested the former secretary of state among white voters, 57 percent to her 42 percent, while she beat him among black voters, 65 percent to his 30 percent. In the South, she has often carried more than 80 percent of the African-American vote.

And he trounced her among independents, 70 percent of whom voted for Sanders.

Michigan awards its 147 delegates on a proportional basis.
