very white state, no Clinton spending, and he still didn't even meet what demographics would indicate his vote share would be (+7, he got +5).

Guam's coming up on Saturday. Clinton might even earn most of those back from yesterday given that Sanders' operatives have insulted Guam voters on stage.

West Virginia next Tuesday? Demographically, I give Sanders +10 in the state--another technical win, and another case where he slips even further behind in his delegate targets.

And it doesn't get better from there, either.
