Please see my thread on this, with all the numbers:

"Let's clear this up: SANDERS WON TONIGHT!"

His extraordinary wins in Idaho (by 78%) and Utah (by 79%) compensated for his losses in AZ and netted him 15 delegates overall.

Big win for Sanders! He's no longer losing delegates; he's gaining delegates, and the skies just get bluer and bluer from this point on.

Of course, it all happened too late for tomorrow's headlines. The Corrupt Media will weep that they didn't get the story right.

And excuse me for the cynicism, but I can't help but think that the media would have called it much earlier if Hillary had been ahead. Hell... he won both Utah and Idaho by about 80%! The media couldn't tell which way it was heading much earlier? Reminds me of Maine. They just swept the results of that one under the rug and pretended it hadn't happened. And it probably worked for a lot of people. I forgot all about the Maine primary until someone brought it up about a week after the fact. And it also sucks that they keep adding in the superdelegate count with the actual pledged delegates. It gives the masses of people who aren't quite as informed about politics the impression that Bernie can never catch up to Hillary. This is just so wrong.
