They are only a few and make up over half of the remaining expected vote. Becerra did great with the early votes but steyer is winning the same percent as becerra in the late vote with the gop doing horribly in the late batches.

Anyways. We don't have to wait long to see how right or wrong we are. The next batch will cover a lot and give us a great idea tonight how much more runway steyer has to make it to 2nd.

With 23% of the vote left to count and the batches possibly being even more democratic leaning than this SSJVegeta Jun 8 #3

D vs D depressing dem turnout makes no sense SSJVegeta Jun 9 #35

Republican candidates ceiling is hit. Its all about steyer and brecerra now SSJVegeta Jun 8 #4
4.5% gap narrowed to 2.8% by adding 7% to the total vote count Sympthsical Jun 8 #5
2.8 now after LAs count?? Oof Hilton is done for almost certainly SSJVegeta Jun 8 #7
Yeah, more from LA and SF came in Sympthsical Jun 8 #9
If that trend entirely holds with the remaining votes SSJVegeta Jun 9 #19
It probably won't Sympthsical Jun 9 #20
Well I think the votes remaining even in red counties will probably favor steyer quite a bit. SSJVegeta Jun 9 #21
It's updated again, with the gap closing further. Sympthsical Jun 8 #8
Decision Desk's count is a little ahead of the SOS Wiz Imp Jun 8 #10
Might be realllly close still SSJVegeta Jun 8 #11
Oh man DD called it for Hilton already. Think theyre right? SSJVegeta Jun 8 #12

I mean the results are bound to be within 1 percentage point and they probably know that SSJVegeta Jun 9 #14
AP called 2nd place for Hilton. It's over. Wiz Imp Jun 10 #45
Indeed. Steyer even conceded. It was correct that the more conservative counties were the deciders SSJVegeta Jun 10 #46
Yes, Steyer is not gonna be #2 obamanut2012 Jun 9 #23
Gentlemans bet. If Steyer doesnt make it. I will post a "you told me so" comment to one of your posts" :) SSJVegeta Jun 9 #30
You told me so!! SSJVegeta Jun 9 #44
Steyer will not be on the ballot obamanut2012 Jun 9 #15
As I said: He will finish within 1% of Hilton or better (he is 2.5% away now) SSJVegeta Jun 9 #16
I live in Sac, It is Becerra and Hilton, with Steyer a distant third here obamanut2012 Jun 9 #24
Sac is only 50% completed. Kamala won that county by 20%. Hilton isnt getting many more votes there. SSJVegeta Jun 9 #25
