My current prediction for tomorrow

Based on 538's current projections, taking into account the latest polls today showing many of the races narrowing, and assuming a tie in Colorado, Minnesota, and American Samoa, my prediction is:

Hillary will take 518 delegates, Bernie will take 347 (Hillary +171).

This will make the cumulative total of pledged delegates 609 to 412 (Hillary +197), and the cumulative total of all delegates 1,062 to 497 (Hillary +565). Hillary will have 44.6% of the total number of delegates needed to secure the nomination, and 30.1% of the total needed to secure a majority of pledged delegates.

But there's always the chance (hope) that Saturday's result will tip a lot of people toward her and he win margins will be even bigger.

But the really good thing about tomorrow is that all of Sanders' "strong" states will have voted, and she'll probably win all of the remaining 35 states.
