Kornacki said that Biden could be ahead of Sanders in delegates tonight.

I can't f'ing believe it. I was prepared to be happy if Biden was within spitting distance..if Sanders didn't run away with the nomination tonight-100 to 150 behind Sanders...I never expected such a night...so happy.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

2. I think because California is screwy in counting that Biden definitely will be ahead.

Texas will be close to a wash, and won't make up for Biden's more dominant wins. California's numbers won't be known for a week or so.

10. I think that is true...very sad for Warren. I back Biden but I wish she was ahead in Massachusetts.

But given where Sanders needed to be at the end of the night, ST is a disaster for him. I don't think he will win a plurality of delegates.

'You can get a "tell" by listening before the polls close.

They usually know how this is going to end and tease it out over time.

This is a good example.....
