NY Times: California Looking Less Like a Sure Thing for Hillary Clinton

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/27/us/politics/hillary-clinton-bernie-sanders-california-primary.html?&moduleDetail=section-news-3&action=click&contentCollection=Politics®ion=Footer&module=MoreInSection&version=WhatsNext&contentID=WhatsNext&pgtype=article

On Wednesday, after days of looking, Karen Furia, 65, finally found what she was searching for: a “Hillary” bumper sticker, at a Clinton campaign rally in Salinas, Calif.

“I keep hearing Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, or seeing Bernie fliers,’’ said Ms. Furia, a retiree. “I am sort of tired of hearing him.’’

She was referring, of course, to Senator Bernie Sanders, Mrs. Clinton’s Democratic opponent, who is pouring energy and resources into California’s June 7 primary.

His efforts appear to be paying off.

She needs to win by like 78% in all rest of the primaries to get the majority number needed to clinch it before the convention. It is amusing how many people don't know that SD do not vote till the convention so nothing is finalized until them no matter what. Unless you have the majority of delegates made up from the pledged delegates.
