The gap in regular delegates won to date is 9.9%, 54.95% for Hillary to 45.05% for Bernie. Not 5%. Including the remaining delegates in remaining states as a percentage doesn't make any sense. Bernie has to win roughly 57% of remaining delegates to have more regular delegates than Hillary going into the convention.
