There were conflicting reports of a 7-0 or 6-1 split, but it looks now like Bernie gets absolutely nothing from yesterday.

1. VI doesn't count

for some reason.

[Lord Magus]

5. "Deep South"

[oberliner]

3. Population is 75 percent Black or African American

HRC tends to do very well with those voters.

[RandySF]

6. I know. Tourism industry workers are a simple people who need the guidance of the revolution

A revolution in which 28% of donors do not even work at all. Should my partner, who earns a very good living from the tourism industry, also free herself form the shackles, quit her job and paint art on the sidewalk that nobody will buy as she shakes her fist at 'The Man'?

9. Tourism--that's how CUBA has been paying the bills, for many years, now.

We weren't allowed to go, but that didn't stop Canadians and all of Europe.

smh!

[NCTraveler]

7. I live in a county in Florida ten times that size.

We are also dependent on tourism. We went for Clinton.

8. I spent several weeks in Christiansted on St. Croix USVI

many years ago. I wasn't living in swanky accommodations, though.

The people are very nice; it's got a small town feel, that island, even with all the tourists ebbing and flowing.

13. It's early

but these hilarious bullshit is definitely in the running for dumbest post of the day.

Well done and congratulations on your nomination for this prestigious and highly competitive honor.

[sharp_stick]

16. Really?

My 5 year old can come up with a better comeback than that.
You're not even trying. You can't even blame being bad at simple math for this.

[RandySF]

15. Interesting fact about the Revolution.

17. You're right. Let's disenfranchise the suckers. nt

[SidDithers]

19. Like Hawaii?...nt

[puffy socks]

21. what?

There isnt a single person alive who doesnt make their living off "the wealth of others" welcome to a consumer based economy.


snobbery is disgusting.

[MoonRiver]

10. Which is exactly what he deserves.

[Happyhippychick]

11. "Non-viable"

I like that description.

[CrowCityDem]

12. It's the official term for not reaching the minimum % to get delegates.

[aikoaiko]

18. Even if it were true in a way, he can still campaign for remaining votes and delegates

In this sense, Bernie is viable.

[MohRokTah]

20. IF he's non-viable in Puerto Rico, Hillary is the nominee!!!!!

Here's to hoping Sanders can't hit the threshold today!!!!!

[ucrdem]

22. Bernie's betting the farm on California and it might be over before the polls even open.

That would be rich wouldn't it?

[Alfresco]

24. Kick!

[wyldwolf]

25. Virgin Islands - nothing but a bunch of oligarches

[tarheelsunc]

26. But hey, at least he has "momentum"... OOPS. eom
