There won't be a contested convention. Get over it. [View all]

Right after CA and NJ vote on June 7th, Hillary will be at a clear majority of pledged and super delegates. The super delegates will make it clear they're not budging. Polling will show 70-75% of Dems consider the race completely and totally over. Sanders will concede and endorse Hillary.

That's what will happen. Everything else is just going through the motions until CA has voted.
