Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumThe math probably just got harder for Bernie, despite the nominal win in WI.
Wisconsin is an open primary, largely liberal white electorate. The only thing better for him are the white caucus states, but those are almost done.
In order for Bernie to come close to catching up with Hillary, he's gonna have to do as well as he did in Wisconsin (or even better, depending on how this turns out) in states with closed primaries and much larger minority populations. Not likely.

(50,562 posts)That still puts her about 250 pledged delegates ahead.
Let's do a little pencil work here. If he takes ALL the delegates from Wyoming - which is semi-possible - he goes to New York 231 delegates down. And in New York, my friends, Bernie is going to get stomped.
Mr. Sanders' last good day is in four days.

(24,544 posts)He's had some BLOW OUTS before, like in Vermont. This wasn't one of them. Not even close.
His 13-14% win does precious little for his huge delegate deficit. Looks like he'll get around 50 to her 30 which is pitiful considering he's 250+ delegates behind, and that's NOT including the super delegates.
