That appears so for Hillary NWCorona Mar 2016 #4

What is remarkable is that he shaved 100 delegates in a few days and just a few contests. morningfog Mar 2016 #2

Not really. hack89 Mar 2016 #5

He's making the road less impossible with his landslides against the front runner. morningfog Mar 2016 #7

He needs landslides in big states hack89 Mar 2016 #9

No he doesn't need a landslide in a big state. He needs wins in big states to be sure and morningfog Mar 2016 #11

He needs landslide victories simply to get the delegates he needs hack89 Mar 2016 #16

Her lead is 228 delegates. He needs 56.5% of the remaining delegates. morningfog Mar 2016 #21

She needs 44%. She could lose every remaining state and still be the nominee. hack89 Mar 2016 #49

Lol, of course it's easier. morningfog Mar 2016 #50

That chart should scare the hell out of any Bernie supporter. hack89 Mar 2016 #3

No fear. It is what it is. morningfog Mar 2016 #8

I think it looks pretty promising. bobbobbins01 Mar 2016 #10

Based on what understanding of the electorate? hack89 Mar 2016 #12

Basically according to that site, he has to win almost every contest Renew Deal Mar 2016 #29

Some hilarious stuff right there Tarc Mar 2016 #35

He is not even going to get 44% in NY let alone 54% hrmjustin Mar 2016 #40

Now there's a wonderful piece of dishonesty. Donald Ian Rankin Mar 2016 #44

That clearly shows how impossible it is for Bernie to win. DCBob Mar 2016 #46

Chart ignores super delegates Gothmog Mar 2016 #47
