Delegate math update...

http://www.thegreenpapers.com/P16/D

Hillary Clinton has won 1446 pledged delegates
Bernie Sanders has won 1205 pledged delegates

There are 4051 pledged delegates available in 2016.
A majority of pledged delegates would be 2026.

There have been 2651 pledged delegates allocated to date.
There are 1400 pledged delegates still to be allocated.

Hillary needs 580 of the remaining 1400 = 41.4%
Bernie needs 821 of the remaining 1400 = 58.6%

I moved from NJ to WA. There aren't any here. It's perhaps the main thing I miss!

Born in Kentucky where they are plentiful. When I moved to Denver, I was surprised to see so many here in the spring.

One can dream. I changed to a cardinal when my partner died. They were "our" bird. So they really are quite special to me.

WE don't do contested elections. She needs to be ahead which she is and will be more ahead after next week...then the super delegates go with the candidate with the most pledged delegates as they always do...voila she is the candidate. Bernie has lost people. I am talking about posters saying we will have a contested convention...not those on this post just to be clear. Thanks for the thread.
