91% of the vote in. Bernie up by 24,000. (Original Post) BernieforPres2016 Mar 2016 OP
As far as my extrapolations go, she cannot catch up. Jarqui Mar 2016 #1
I agree DLnyc Mar 2016 #5
Green papers has Sanders getting 71, Clinton 59 right now Jarqui Mar 2016 #7
Interesting, I don't know how that works, I thought it was just proportional. DLnyc Mar 2016 #9

Times site has her down 28,000 votes, and only about 1/6 of Wayne left to come in, I would guess about 40,000 votes. She would need to get almost 75% of those, and she also seems to be losing ground in Grand Rapids, so pretty unlikely, as far as I can see!

Of course, they will end up basically splitting the delegates anyway, as I understand it.

So that they would split 65/65. Or maybe like 65 Sanders and 62 Hillary, since maybe he is 2% ahead and there is 2% other. ???

From about 30 precincts. Weird!

King has been saying it is very hard to come up with enough votes for Hillary. I don't blame them for holding off in case a big chunk from a Wayne County precinct or two comes in. I think they just want to be sure. But based on the math they've laid out, I think it is about over.

I would suspect everyone. No one comes back at that stage. Let's get realistic here. MSM still hates Bernie.
