Sanders would need 86 percent of 1052 delegates remaining to be chosen to reach 2383 PDs + SDs, the ACTUAL goal of the Democratic Presidential nomination process, not the irrelevant and delusional 2026 PDs Bernie Bots have glommed onto.
Hillary needs only 14 percent.
Since each candidate exceeding a minimum vote threshold gets at least FIFTEEN percent of a state's delegates, Hillary has clinched the nomination. Bernie Bots only are helping Trump and Republican control of Congress and the USSC by continuing to echo false Republican attacks against Hillary.
