The Delegate Fight: 2016

[Shadows]

March 26 Democratic Primaries

Alaska, Hawaii, and Washington qualify as a "regional cluster," and receive a 15% delegate bonus.

So, just for being in the "same region," these three states all get 15% more delegates than they would otherwise?

Pretty stupid, but it should help Bernie.

The appropriations of delegates often breaks with population, many states Clinton won big, shdn't have had so many delegates. This is what the system is.

You lose some, you win some.

Clinton-Sanders enthusiasm gap continues in Colorado, where Sanders picks up 2 delegates at the State Convention today at Clinton's expense (1 extra At-Large and 1 extra pledged PLEO).  He had 63% at the state convention, compared to initial projections of 59%.

Final count: Sanders 41 - Clinton 25.

Sanders has picked up a total of 4 (perhaps 6, depending on rules interpretations) from being better mobilized at these conventions, so far.

Jeff Weaver was on WADR and when pressed on how they plan to get to a majority he said in part would be their efforts to squeeze more out of the caucus state conventions, "15-20" in total.   He also said they would do very well in NY, and win PA, CT, RI, CA, OR, MT, SD and ND.

They can very easily get one more out of Iowa, two more out of Nevada (though the latter might be subject to a credentials fight), but honestly that's about it.  15-20 isn't physically possible barring violence.

Iowa they will get 3-4 atleast, I mean o Malley's delegates aren't done, so that would automatically flip it 23-21, he can get more, Nevada too.

Washington, Alaska, Idaho, Utah - Some of these states may have a blowout & Hillary may not even get 15%. I think 25-30 is possible with a push!

3M calls by Bernie's supporters in the last 48 hours - Mostly to NY - Amazing, unreal effort - Hope we can get a somewhat close result!
