In reply to the discussion: Poll: Clinton up 10 points among likely California voters [View all]HeartoftheMidwest
(309 posts)41. Nothing is decided until the convention.
The haste with which Clinton is being coronated is a Karl Rove strategy: declare the victory in advance of the actual clear count, then pound that message home through all media outlets that will take the bait ( or that you own outright. ) Get some of your top political supporters to keep repeating the message too, til people begin to believe it.
There are still states that need to vote, and most independent, non-partisan projections show neither candidate will have enough delegates to win outright. So please stop trying to shorten the process ( I sympathize; it's been painful ) and stop disregarding the rights and votes of Americans who have yet to vote.

Outlier? There have been a couple of polls in the last two weeks showing her up ~18 points.
