1. Great news, another win for Hillary, thanks for sharing

[DCBob]

4. Small but significant.

The Berners thought they had this one.

22. really? My state went 81% for bernie and the hillarians said it didn't matter, it didn't

count, etc.

You win 4 out of 7 and think its significant in Guam? I could laugh.

[DCBob]

23. All states are significant.. even small ones or southern ones.

2. Bernie must of lost--They are already calling voter fraud on Bernie's Redd It. 😂😂

3. LOL.. it never ends.

5. They didn't waste any time, did they?

[riversedge]

7. I think many are pre-programmed just to hit a prepared tweet.

19. I thought they liked caucuses because "they were transparent" and "you can't cheat"?

[JTFrog]

21. Oh, good gravy.

[CrowCityDem]

6. And two Supers there...

followed Bernie's advice, and decided to go with the will of the people in Guam. Two more Supers for Hillary!

[DCBob]

17. Indeed.

[floppyboo]

18. All 4 were previously pledged to Hillary - but good for them for following the electorate!

[Yavin4]

8. Wipes out the Indiana primary "loss"

And less delegates over all left.

[DCBob]

14. Yep!

Love it!

[auntpurl]

9. K&R!

[thesquanderer]

10. Guam only had 7 pledged delegates available in todays contest.

Whoever would win 60 to 40 in today's caucus ends up with one pledged delegate more than the other (4 vs 3).

There is no way for Hillary to "net" 5 delegates today. Even if you're getting that number by counting super delegates, she "netted" three of those from Guam long ago, not today. (Though of course, those aren't cast in stone anyway.)

Another way to look at it is that Sanders' goal, unlikely as it may be, is to come to the convention with more pledged delegates than Hillary does. Toward that end, a 60-40 loss today would get him one delegate further from that goal.

[DCBob]

11. That "net" number was from someone's tweet.

I suspect they are counting supers.

[thesquanderer]

12. Got it. Thanks for the clarification. (n/t)

[floppyboo]

15. According to HuffPo, there are 4 SD, leaving 8 to split in what appears to be 60/40 for clinton

5/3? net gain 2? plus the 4...

[DCBob]

16. There is this also..

#GuamCaucus democrat party chair and vice chair superdelegates have announced they will follow the popular vote in DNC vote.. per Sanders recommendations.

20. Correct me if I'm wrong ... but as near as I can tell, it starting to look like ....

... Bernie will NOT be the nominee.
