Sanders just took the lead in Missouri

Crap.

However, that's with not many votes yet counted, and with much of St. Louis and Kansas City yet to come in.

pledged delegates. The victory has already been won.

Actually it was won a while ago, but this makes it clearer to those who were reluctant to face the reality.

estimate is Hillary will win by 0.1%, but it keeps swinging back and forth. This will go late into the night.

3%, which is just over 7,000 votes. 49% in.

NY Times projection has Hillary winning by 0.1%, BUT

Andrea Mitchell just said that Hillary's camp is not optimistic in Missouri.

The margins will be small, in contrast to the margins of her wins tonight. So she will widen the delegate count gap considerably.

this has been a great night, and we've blown this thing open. The margins coming out of Ohio, a state Sanders said he was going to win, are incredible.

The math has been over for a long time. Tonight the narratives Sanders has been weaving also crumbled.

I'm just being greedy and want the sweep.
