total vote count - BO still way ahead

[PITBOS]

This is why he'll be the dem nom. Hillary can't catch him no matter how far in the gutter she goes with her attacks.

This will weigh heavy with the SD's

1. So he still wins the popular vote, the most states, and the most delegates.....

Great!

[jgraz]

3. OMG!! He should just drop out now!!!

:rofl:

[MaraJade]

13. Popular vote. . .?

Hillary supporters won't vote for him, and so I don't know how in the worlds he'll
ever get the popular vote. . .

[The_Casual_Observer]

2. Matters not. He hasn't enough of anything to win.

4. MO

Momentum's a bitch!

[Skoods]

5. 600,000

Is not way ahead considering there are still alot of states left and she could win Pennsylvania by hundreds of thousands alone.

[meow mix]

6. yup he'll win, which is why hillary supporters are so bitter tonight

they know it

[ruggerson]

7. She's actually now ahead if you include FL

[RememberWellstone]

8. Yep

took the words right outta my mouth.

[nomorewhopper]

12. not true

she's ahead if you include Florida AND Michigan

(but those states WONT count)

obama wasn't on the ballot in michigan. if you just include florida and not michigan, obama's still in the lead.

even the clinton campaign is calling for a re-do in those two states because they know you cannot count the elections "as is".

[joshcryer]

18. Actually, they will count, because they will come up in the democratic discussions at the DNC.

When the delegate spread is small all the candidates have are "persuasive arguments" to the superdelegates.

[jgraz]

14. She's also winning if you add in Bill's votes from 1992

Why not? They're about as relevant.

[scheming daemons]

16. Since Florida and Michigan will have do-over primaries... then they technically haven't voted yet...

...

0 to 0 in both.

[quakerboy]

21. Not true

do the math. After today, even with florida and Michigan, he is still up almost 300k.

10. Thanks for this!

A little silver lining (+Vermont) for this Obama fan.

We need to keep reminding folks that he indeed still leads in the popular vote by over 1/2 million.

The fight goes on!

And yes, I think O will be our nominee still:hi:

[MaraJade]

15. Does that half million include the people who voted

for Hillary?

If so, you are really counting your chickens well before they are hatched!

[Tom Rinaldo]

11. From your site:

When Michigan and Florida popular votes are included in the totals, Clinton is ahead in the popular vote.

Personally I don't count Michigan,. but I do count Florida. All candidates were on the ballot in Florida and 1.7 million Democrats voted there.

[joshcryer]

17. You conveniently leave out MI and FL, which will be discussed at the convention unless a revote.

Typical.

[MonkeyFunk]

19. Actually

he's behind if you count Florida and Michigan.

[PITBOS]

20. he wasn't on the ballot in Mi and it won't be counted

[MonkeyFunk]

22. Right.

He removed his name, so he got no votes. Whose fault is that?

We're discussing the popular vote, not delegates here. Clinton is leading in the popular vote.

[berni_mccoy]

23. You guys just can't get a grip on reality, can you?

[Maddy McCall]

25. And those are votes, right?

Because we Democrats certainly rail against disfranchising voters. I can't imagine anyone saying that Democrats' votes shouldn't count.

24. Sorry, but Obama does not win the popular vote across the nation. nt
