Reply #14: Half of the democratic base has been voting for Hillary [View All]

[Apollo11]

If you look at the latest vote totals on Real Clear Politics*, you will learn that:

16,639,064 people already voted for Hillary (including Florida and Michigan)

16,836,569 people already voted for Obama (including Florida)

If you add the 238,168 "uncommitted"s from Michigan to Obama's total, you get 17,074,737

My point is: those numbers are not too far apart, even if Obama is clearly in front.

But we know that a lot of Obama's votes have come from unaffiliated or "independent" voters.

So if you only count registered Democrats - Hillary would probably be in front.

At the very least - half of registered Democrats have been voting for Hillary Clinton.
