She's definitely besting him. By 300 or so pledged delegates. That's not up for debate.

She will likely end up with nearly 2200 pledged delegates, while Sanders will likely finish with fewer than 1900.

The reason for the 'lol' is because of a call for unity in the middle of a Bernie bashing thread. It's like "Bernie is an asshole, time for unity".
