That will earn him 3 more delegates than Clinton which won't even make a dent in his 325 delegate deficit so far.

And you listed five of the states voting on 3/22 and 3/26, curiously skipping over the second biggest state of Arizona, where Clinton has a commanding lead.

Of the six states voting in the next five days, Clinton will come out with more total delegates and Sanders falling further behind with 275 more delegates accounted for.

The lead is widening as we get closer to the finish line - not the way to win a race.
