Women's votes don't count.

Sanders is kicking the shit out of Clinton, duh.

2383 delegates are needed to win

Clinton has 1596 + 519 SD = 2115. needs 268 more
Bernie has 1281 + 39 SD = 1320 needs 1063 more


total delegates 4765
allocated 3435
available 1330



Bernie needs 1062 of the 1330 remaining delegates

where is his path to victory? What percentage of the remaining vote and SD does he need to win? 80/85?

Which would bump it over 2150 total. 200 and change to the nomination. Sadly it doesn't look like there's enough delegates out there for her to get to 2383 until June 7, unless a big bloc of supers announce (which could happen).

as her delegate count goes up, as the totals are counted, the further in the lead Bernie gets. Hillary needs less than 300 delegates before Bernie wins.

I just heard a poster on TPM's FB page say that. He claimed that BS is the one who is actually leading, and he linked to some conspiracy theory article about the media calling the races too early and all the votes not being counted. No matter how much HC wins by, there will be a small handful of tinfoil hat wearers (or trolls) who will continue to say that BS is the one winning and the one who true progressives™ support.
