Good to hear that VA got called immediately.

I expected VA to be too close for a projection

Why is Sanders already giving his victory speech?

That shakes belief he might still win other states tonight.

My feeling too. He's a bit early

Interesting that Bernie could win all his targets. Still, he'll be undone by his own proclamation of proportionality.

He will only split the delegates in the states that he wins. If Clinton wins big in her states she will move ahead in the delegate count.

Even if Sanders wins in Mass and OK it will be close, so he will not gain much in delegates. Big wins in the south for Clinton especially Texas will give her a nice gain in delegates.

A big win in Texas is very important for Clinton.

When all the dust settles in Mass and OK both Clinton and Sanders will walk away with about 50% of the delegates.

I think Bernie underperformed a bit tonight. Even with winning, OK, CO, MN, and VT, he lost TX by a huge margin and MA is still up for grabs. If he gets MA, this could get interesting.

TX is one of the major factors tonight. Hillary might ge more delegates from Texas alone, than Sanders gets in all his state wins.

Even if Sanders gets Mass, the delegate win will be neglegable.

Winning MA or loosing would make no difference in delegates.

Correct, there's an even number of delegates in both the statewide pools, so a close win means an even split there.

That's correct. Sanders wins will not give him a delegate advantage. Clinton will rack up delegates from her southern state wins, though.

To sum things up. Sanders keeps hope alive by winning in VT, OK, MN and CO. His margin of win will not help him much in way of delegates. Clintons margin of victory in states with large amounts of delegates will move her much further towards eventually securing the nomination.
