28. I did the numbers; without superdelegate support it's probably not possible

May 2016

She needs 71 delegates to clinch. (Bernie, by comparison, needs 838 delegates to clinch.)

The Virgin Islands has 7 pledged delegates and 2 unclaimed SD. (http://www.thegreenpapers.com/P16/VI-D)

Puerto Rico has 60 pledged delegates and 3 unclaimed SD. (http://www.thegreenpapers.com/P16/PR-D)

To clinch this weekend she has to sweep both states AND take all the unclaimed SD. As much as I'd like to see it happen, there's no way it will.

Locking it up when NJ reports is fine by me.
