The problem for Sanders is that he is behind by 76,000 votes in absentee and early voting, and that constitutes a full 30% of registered Democrats. So, the question is, will he win the remainder of the registered Democrats 61%-39% in order to even the ass-kicking he received in early voting. The AP and CNN - who have exit polls - do not think so. Will the lead stay as lop-sided as it is now? Probably not. Will Sanders win? Deeply unlikely.

That would be 180,000+ votes from a single precinct if the 1 in 724 was correct.

the wider vote may have a different margin, it seems to me.

185,000 now, to be exact. Weird, non-sensical numbers, to me.
