HUGS TO THE WHOLE HILLARY CREW!!!
If we need any encouragement, its important to remember that we came through tonight a little disappointed but not much worse for wear. Sanders fell so far short of what he needed that he is in worse shape than ever going into the big contests where he is not favored to win. He needed ridiculously HUGE numbers and his showing tonight was an epic FAIL. At best it was a wobbly finish that puts him virtually no closer to what he needs in the delegate math. His campaign isn't just in trouble, it is dead in the water. For all of his splashing, he isn't getting anywhere and he and his advisors know it. Sadly, it will probably encourage his poor followers to give him more money. He needed a massive blowout and all he got was a weak, tepid, paltry, needed-waaayy-more-than-that, even-the indies-can't-save-you, last desperate gasp in a failing campaign contest.
OTOH, Hillary is in fantastic shape going forward into states that favor her! We will win and win big in states that have large numbers of Democrats, the states with diversity, the states that will carry us forward in the general election. Soon, we are going to be rejoicing and that much closer to saying, "Madam President!"

OP
Would the other factor be that unlike the Republicans which assign 3 delegates to each district.
