(62 posts)43. The odds are slim?
I looked at the polling data and Sanders beats Trump in 63 of the past 68 polls, those are some damning numbers for Trump.
Of course who knows what would happen in the General, both have very active bases of support.
Of course Sanders draws in large crowds and has great fund raising numbers, higher than any other democrat that has run this season.
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided

First, a candidate needs to gain 50% of the delegates in order to win the nomination.

Julin Castro. He's young, smart and a person of color. And he might just enable the ticket
