Related: About this forumCould Sanders get any superdelegates?
This is what I've long wondered about with his campaign's viability. Would any superdelegates vote for him? I am a Sanders supporter and hate the superdelegate idea personally.

Hillary has something like 400. Hillary is going to lose Supers. Bernie will gain Supers. It's impossible to say how many Hillary will lose, but you can bet they will be mostly from Midwestern and North Eastern states, probably all of the ones on the West Coast.

As a Senator, Bernie is a super-delegate for Vermont.
