If you look at the delegates awarded tonight in AZ (vote in so far)


Winner H. Clinton
60.6%

196,617 45
B. Sanders

36.9%
119,798 17

45 Clinton 17 Sanders

and divide them into the vote

http://www.politico.com/2016-election/results/map/president

you would get 7000 votes per delegate for Sanders

And 4350 votes per delegate for Clinton.

What seems democratic about this?

[onecaliberal]

1. How is that possible.

[bernbabe]

4. Bernie won a lot of caucuses

they don't count the voters in them.

[onecaliberal]

5. So how does she get more delegates?

[PatrynXX]

8. just ran into someone pro Primary

sigh yeah which why I can't stand them. easy way to block the vote. Caucuses harder to pull that off.

[Ed Suspicious]

2. Seriously, is somebody important gonna call shenanigans on this shit?

[jhart3333]

3. The math. The math is what seems undemocratic.

Is there a bonus for winning the state?

7. they may have added the superdelegates in

But they shouldn't as they were pledged and aren't in play till they vote in the convention.

I'm I wrong?

Does this feel like democracy?

[jhart3333]

9. Hmmm

From CNN. They label it pledged delegates.

Clinton: 207,492 / 35 = 5928

Sanders: 127,534 / 18 = 7085

Rounding?

[Pharaoh]

10. you have Sanders up by over 1000

that can't be right.

[jhart3333]

12. Yep

Here it is with the current numbers:

Clinton: 212,691 / 35 = 6077

Sanders: 132,221 / 18 = 7346

[PatrynXX]

6. delegate math compared to 2008

is wildely different I don't get it either. although ironically delegates is the main reason Bernie is still in it. She can't close the deal

[in_cog_ni_to]

11. People are still voting in AZ! Polls have not even closed yet, so

allocating delegates is not even possible.

I hope Bernie sues the AP, CNN, MSNBC and any other "news" organization who called AZ BEFORE ALL POLLS CLOSED. That'S ELECTION TAMPERING and illegal.

PEACE
LOVE
