Clinton Delegate Lead Down to 194

A truthful article.
Difficult to find them these days.




Clinton Delegate Lead Down to 194, Even as Dramatic Miscounting of Delegates by Media Continues


1,299 to 1,105.

That’s the “insurmountable” delegate lead Hillary Clinton has over Bernie Sanders.

And there are still 1,674 pledged delegates yet to be awarded in twenty primaries and caucuses to be held over the next two months; scores of up-for-grabs delegates yet to be decided via state and county Democratic conventions; and hundreds and hundreds of super-delegates to be wooed by both candidates in Philadelphia this summer — with not a single one of them having officially committed themselves to anybody.

That’s the cold, hard truth — the indisputable numeric data of the current election cycle — but it’s not the story Americans are being told.

Are the district consolidations done now, before they go to their state rounds? Any new changes?
