So Hillary could net +14 delegates today

1. Let's see where it all land, and let's wait till after Maine.

4. Great night for Bernie so far!

[DCBob]

2. Very possible.

Good night for the Hillary team!

[msanthrope]

5. Yes mt

[Aerows]

23. They will probably still be sorting out the NOLA vote

a couple of weeks from now.

It will likely go on for weeks. New Orleans is odd.

They will be arguing over which particular precinct is part of which particular Parish.

[Alfresco]

6. Hillary wins the Super Saturday!

[Skid Rogue]

7. New Orleans isn't even reporting yet. XD

[Aerows]

21. NOLA is always going to

be difficult to determine the winner. It is what it is. Orleans Parish vs. Jefferson Parish voting has so many convoluted rules, you might as well just be shaking dice to determine the outcome.

I love New Orleans, and I grew up there, but politics are little better than toad races with regard to integrity.

8. She's up by 50 points right now...

that could be +30 delegates.

Edit: Sorry, NYT includes supers in their state delegate totals.

a 50pt win would be a gain of 25ish delegates, not 30.

13. I like to be conservative :)

[mucifer]

9. Still amazed Bernie is winning states and hanging in there.

Considering the lack of press for Bernie and the lack of corporate money, it's pretty great how well he is doing.

[DCBob]

10. I think it will be closer to a 20 delegate gain.

KS: 19 14
NE: 14 11
LA: 11 40

TTL: 44 65

14. I like being conservative :)

[DCBob]

15. Nothing wrong with that!

[Aerows]

17. The two of you are basking in being conservative

[DCBob]

18. LOL..

Funny observation.

[hill2016]

22. if I were optimistic I would think

that Clinton takes +30 delegates from LA

-3 from Nebraska
-4 from Kansas

For a lead of +23 delegates.

[Aerows]

27. Being "Optimistic" is that

they can figure out what one smudge meant on the ballot as opposed to another.

I know that sounds caustic, but I grew up in Louisiana. New Orleans is a fantastic place, but dang, politics there are ... unscrupulous to put it politely.

[DCBob]

35. Looks you are going to be right.

I was way off on Kansas.

[DrDan]

19. I thought La had 51 delegates

[DCBob]

20. Oops typo.

Fixed.

[SidDithers]

30. The gain is going to be bigger for Bernie in KS...

Might be as much as 22-11 or 21-12 in his favour.

Looks like he won 68-32

Sid

[DCBob]

31. Yep. Thanks

Still a very gain for Hillary.

[Bleacher Creature]

11. Sanders can't afford to fall any farther behind.

And yet, that's exactly what's about to happen.

[Recursion]

12. And Maine will probably cancel that out tomorrow. All eyes to Michigan... (nt)

[DCBob]

24. Not entirely unless Bernie has a huge win there.

Maine only has 25 delegates. To offset a 15 plus delegate gain today Bernie would need to win like 80-20 tomorrow. Not likely.

[Recursion]

33. I'm predicting a pretty lopsided win for Sanders tomorrow (today, for me)

I've been wrong before, particularly in this cycle, though.

[Aerows]

16. Got to win them first. n/t

[Number23]

25. Her delegate lead increases seemingly by the minute. Two days ago she was up by 194

Today she's up by 222

26. Hey

Check out the new op in AA....

[Number23]

28. Thanks for the heads up, baby girl.

[bravenak]

29. No prob.

[INdemo]

32. Clinton supporters are here with their scripts

Take a look at the % Bernie won by in Kansas and Neb.

We have Maine for Bernie tomorrow.....

[Renew Deal]

34. He won two places where few people live.

She won one place where a lot of people live big.

[Adrahil]

36. Yup. And Bernie will win tomorrow and get a few more.

There is a good chance Hillary comes pout slightly ahead on the weekend going into Michigan.....
