1. Super delegate counter or site?

Is there a resource showing which super delegates have committed and which have not?

There are 712 in total, 540 committed for HRC, 42 committed for BS, leaving 130 uncommitted.

I think we all know probably none of those 130 are going to go for Bernie. Maybe 20 or 30 of them won't commit to Hillary because they need to appear impartial to the end (like Obama, Biden, Carter, etc).

That leaves a good 100 that will be committing to Hillary, it's just a matter of when. And she only needs 79.

So I would think that there will be quite a rush for those remaining ~100 to get on her bandwagon. I doubt many of them will want to be seen to have supported her only after she got the nomination.


I expect it could be like a snowball rolling down hill. Once momentum picks up, things will happen quickly!
