About that celebration in MA for the Hillpublicans

Premature.

NYT just called it for Bernie, not for Hillary. BIG win. That makes it state #5. That's a hell of a haul, and Dems Aboard also backed Bernie.

Bernie's other apparent wins tonight:

OK 42
VT 26
CO 79
MN 93

Will the media report all these voters feeling the bern?
I think all the Dem primaries are proportional, not winner take all....so we need to wait and see the final tally.

Anybody have poll results yet for Alaska, a few time zones away from the rest of tonight's primaries? Folks there tend to be rebels; my guess is Trump and Sanders would take that state, but I could be wrong.

Other than Vermont where it seems Clinton won't clear the 15% threshold, none of the states will have all of their delegates go to one person.

A vote for Hillary Clinton is a vote for Trump, no matter how you define it.

The only way that we can all unite and stand together if Bernie is the nominee, and the result is that the entire DNC executive board just got fired and Bernie wisely selects Gabbard as the DNC chairperson.

am a committed Sanders voter but I think Clinton is pretty good also just not as good. What would I be then? a ReSanders? a Bernican? Please enlighten me.

they just retracted it.
MSNBC and CNN have called it for Hillary.

The NYT did have Bernie as the winner and the AP still has him as the winner. And yeah, Clinton will probably eek out a win w/ 91% in now - but maybe back off on the name calling.

I was talking about the "Hillpublicans" comment being out-of-line. If that's not bothersome to folks, then so be it. However, it is in fact name calling. So mind whom you're preaching to and perhaps render your little advice to the OP, because I don't care what you say one single iota.

It's been quite a first day for you. Maybe you should learn that calling other Democrats "Hillpublicans" is not permitted by the TOS.

The race is really close. Maybe that last 10% will pull Sanders into the lead - although not really likely.
