52-48 Clinton acc to CNN

[JudyM]

Way to keep it close, Bernie!



Too close to call, they're saying. Characterizing it as "a very narrow margin" for her.

On edit: this is based on CNN exit polls. The spread from the reporting precincts looks much better for Clinton, but CNN is apparently comfortable that it's a much closer race.

[democrattotheend]

1. So why are they saying too early to call?

Is that the exit polls or the votes counted so far?

[JudyM]

3. That's their "projection"

[nadinbrzezinski]

4. Too close to call

so we shall see.

Now better write my day story

[krawhitham]

10. Because it is not unheard of for exit polls to be off by 4+ points

[JudyM]

17. Even if it's off by 4 in Clinton's direction, that's not a horrible result. We'll have to see where

the delegates fall...

[Joe the Revelator]

2. That is close enough to make it a close night. And a delegate wash.

[SpareribSP]

5. Heeeeeere we go!

Going to be a long night, we have a race!

[JudyM]

8. I was dreading the first call, but this isn't awful. Would've rather had him win, but close works.

[Cobalt Violet]

6. better than expected if it holds

[jwirr]

7. Actually that would be acceptable and then they will have

to deal with the cheating that is going on. We will get delegates. It is not a big win for her.

[JudyM]

15. If this holds, it's a decent night for Bernie. It's a helluva lot closer than her win over Obama.

[jwirr]

24. Yes.

[Chan790]

33. I'm happy with that for an initial number.

Unlike a lot of other states, it's likely that NYC returns will come in earlier and Manhattan is really the most predictably favorable part of NY state for Clinton.

The outlying parts of the state are a wild card...who knows what's going to happen there? North NY is a lot closer geographically, culturally and demographically to VT than NYC. W. NY is functionally midwestern. It's a big, complicated state and people make the mistake of thinking NYC is the totality of NY state.

[hellofromreddit]

9. I think that might just be Queens.

Haven't found anything concrete.

[JudyM]

12. Hm. CNN didn't say it was only one borough.

[Earth_First]

11. What happened to +14? nt

[JudyM]

13. I know, right?!

[restorefreedom]

14. nothing yet on the nyt page

[Punkingal]

20. There are some results up now from the boroughs..

[restorefreedom]

23. thx for update and link. nt

[Punkingal]

26. YW.

[fun n serious]

16. It is now 60/40 Clinton

But only 1% in

[JudyM]

19. Yeah, they dismissed that as being too early and maintained that it's still close.

[fun n serious]

21. Well, Yeah

1% in only

[Mosby]

18. that was the exit polling. nt

[Mosby]

22. 62-37 now with 2 perceent in

[MannyG]

25. My Guess

Enthusiastic Bernie voters more likely to fill out exit polls than Workmanlike Hillary voters. Expect a larger margin of victory.

[JesterCS]

27. Love the implication that being pro Sanders

Equates to laziness

[MannyG]

35. Love that anybody would jump to that conclusion

Got a good laugh outta that, thanks.

[JudyM]

28. Hm. 15.2% reporting she's way ahead, 61.6 to 38.4.

[SpareribSP]

29. NYC voted earlier than upstate...

Looks like she'll take NYC, Bernie will do well elsewhere.

[JudyM]

31. Yeah, but there's more of the boroughs to still come in....

[Beacool]

30. I think that they're wrong.

Hillary will win NY handily.

[RoccoR5955]

32. Within the margin of error.

Bernie SHALL win NY!

[JudyM]

34. Ya. Holding on for him to rock this!

[Triana]

36. This small of a margin of "victory" in NY? I think Bernie should STAY IN THE RACE

Just keep on going....
