In reply to the discussion: So everyone thought Guam would go to Sanders...but it's another victory for Hillary! [View all]yallerdawg

The Guam Democratic Party has declared Hillary Clinton the winner of the party's presidential caucuses there.
Counting superdelegates, Clinton has amassed a little more than 93 percent of the total necessary for the Democratic nomination, according to ABC News estimates. To get to the magic number of 2,383, the former secretary of state needs to win 16 percent of all remaining delegates and 73 percent of pledged delegates.
Meanwhile, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders needs to win 97 percent of all remaining delegates. He cannot reach 2,383 on pledged delegates alone; to win the Democratic nomination, he would need the support of the superdelegates.
