Okay, so AP is claiming only 99 uncommitted SDs (813 votes left, 714 of them pledged , but the Wiki page last updated had 129 uncommitted. Still, Hillary's SD totals go up by 31 and Bernie's 2, for 33 delegates added to totals?

Unless we have actually 96 uncommitted Superdelegates and 3 delegates are still outstanding from uncertified totals?

Strange this should be mentioned about flipping sper delegates but it appears to be working well Thinkingabout Jun 2016 #5

so you're admitting all the outrage over Bernie supposedly doing it was a distraction because azurnoir Jun 2016 #6

To the extent there was "outrage" it was at the idea of flipping supers even though onenote Jun 2016 #29

No, don't rewrite my post, it is strange there should be complaints about flipping delegates Thinkingabout Jun 2016 #59

Delegate math: Clinton wins, and how AP counts delegates Agnosticsherbet Jun 2016 #7

so again you guys pulled it off well screamed and shouted at the top of your lungs how azurnoir Jun 2016 #8

I sense some hostility. Agnosticsherbet Jun 2016 #11

Good luck with that I mean it sincerely they are well matched though azurnoir Jun 2016 #12

Hostility? passiveporcupine Jun 2016 #24

Losing and being suppressed are not the same onenote Jun 2016 #33

exactly no names azurnoir Jun 2016 #47

Really, you have an actual information to that regard? Lord Magus Jun 2016 #9

What? Sanders didn't have enough SDs to bother trying to flip. sufrommich Jun 2016 #10

The most supers that have ever been flipped is 30 Doctor Jack Jun 2016 #14

Interesting, thanks. Good for perspective too. Hortensis Jun 2016 #65

Did you just make that up? Control-Z Jun 2016 #17

did SD's commit prior to their respective states votes? that's what would have to happen azurnoir Jun 2016 #21

That makes no sense. moriah Jun 2016 #30

yess it would and notice AP hasn't released their names either -hmmmmm azurnoir Jun 2016 #32

I don't believe that AP release names. But wiki and 538 do. LiberalFighter Jun 2016 #62

Interesting thing, in playing with math.... moriah Jun 2016 #64

That is not true Demsrule86 Jun 2016 #37

There was still hundreds of uncommitted supers. You seem to think they're all accounted for nt LaydeeBug Jun 2016 #67

Source, Please Norman Conch Quest Jun 2016 #19

see post #21 azurnoir Jun 2016 #23

Who told you? Demsrule86 Jun 2016 #20

a little Birdie azurnoir Jun 2016 #25

Odd, since yesterday had Bernie with 46 SDs on the AP list... moriah Jun 2016 #27

Then IF true delegates are committing prior to their respective state voting -interesting azurnoir Jun 2016 #35

I was using Google's "primary results" AP thingamajig. moriah Jun 2016 #39

But you said 48 SD's for Bernie as of now azurnoir Jun 2016 #41

Yeah, Google Primary Results. moriah Jun 2016 #44

well we'll just have to take the word of a Hillary surrogate that she didn't do it azurnoir Jun 2016 #46

Me, a Hillary surrogate? Thanks so much for your personal attacks. moriah Jun 2016 #48

sorry I didn't know it was an attack to super Hillary azurnoir Jun 2016 #49

Calling me a Hillary surrogate certainly is an attack. Same as a shill. moriah Jun 2016 #54

so surrogate and shill mean the same things-reminds of an episode of South Park that was on a couple azurnoir Jun 2016 #55

A surrogate speaks for someone else, so does a shill. moriah Jun 2016 #56

And since you need help on definitions: moriah Jun 2016 #58

so you'd do it if they paid you? otherwise what? azurnoir Jun 2016 #60

And if that's enough reason to call someone a campaign surrogate, looked at yourself pot? moriah Jun 2016 #61

Superdelegates can support whomever they want and whenever they want frazzled Jun 2016 #50

No but most usually wait until then azurnoir Jun 2016 #51

No, not really. frazzled Jun 2016 #57

no they don't. they might end up switching as a result of the elections but most endorse early JI7 Jun 2016 #63

That would be ironic RandySF Jun 2016 #52

I know, right? charlyvi Jun 2016 #68

I have argued that Clinton has a better position to take his than the other way around. NCTraveler Jun 2016 #66

So explain to me how Bernie still has the same number of delegates? nt Demsrule86 Jun 2016 #69

He had less than 50 SD's. She has ELEVEN TIMES that. PeaceNikki Jun 2016 #72
