ZERO chance the DNC would push that... we have to defeat the Orange Menace!! InAbLuEsTaTe Feb 2020 #23
According to this it says Sanders will have 45.20% of the delegates Moderateguy Feb 2020 #8
You seem to be forgetting the 15% threshold to get delegates. bluewater Feb 2020 #10
Why "no way?" If 1796 is Sanders top number, then the rest... LAS14 Feb 2020 #9
The presumption is that enough of the Warren delegates would vote for Bernie on the 2nd round Steelrolled Feb 2020 #71
That is over 45% and far more than double anyone else. If he gets to that level and is denied Celerity Feb 2020 #12
Agreed. If the numbers hold. bluewater Feb 2020 #14
"denying him the nomination would blow up the party"????? musette_sf Feb 2020 #37
Like it or not, Sanders is running as a Democrat and Democratic voters are voting for him. bluewater Feb 2020 #39
Sen Sanders is not a Democrat. musette_sf Feb 2020 #41
And that has what to do with 538's projections? bluewater Feb 2020 #42
It has plenty to do with the Democratic Party musette_sf Feb 2020 #43
Only one of those Sanders quotes is under 30 years old. PufPuf23 Feb 2020 #54

If current trends continue, Sanders' delegate lead will be insurmountable after Super Tuesday Fiendish Thingy Feb 2020 #67

Conventions can be like the game of horseshoes. Steelrolled Feb 2020 #73
Based on this model, it looks like the underthematrix Feb 2020 #16
538 disagrees, they have Sanders far and away most likey to win on the 1st ballot bluewater Feb 2020 #19

If Sanders wins SC, that projection will jump even higher. Garrett78 Feb 2020 #28
Steyer has completely messed things up in South Carolina, and I suspect he will do the same along still_one Feb 2020 #34
Not all of Steyer's support would go to Biden. Besides, I don't think Steyer's numbers will hold. Garrett78 Feb 2020 #36
From what I have heard his ads are playing non-stop in South Carolina. I know here in California still_one Feb 2020 #38
Bloomberg and Steyer are all I hear in California Sympthsical Feb 2020 #80
Pretty much my impression also. We will see if the debates change the dynamics still_one Feb 2020 #81

It really is astounding. And what's changed since 2016 is the diversity of his support. Garrett78 Feb 2020 #46
If Sanders come in with that number of delegates, that would say that his support Blue_true Feb 2020 #44
