Current Pledged Delegate Counts:
Clinton - 1717 (+280)
Sanders - 1437
Remaining Pledged Delegates available: 897 (4051 PD total less 3154 awarded)
To reach a majority of Pledged Delegates (2026 out of 4051)
Clinton needs 309 delegates out of 897 = 34.4%
Sanders needs 589 delegates out of 897 = 65.7%
Next primaries are May 17 in Kentucky, with 55 delegates available, and Oregon, with 61 delegates available.
Sanders need minimum of 65.7% of delegates or he falls farther behind.
65.7% in Kentucky would be 37 out of 55 delegates.
65.7% in Oregon would be be 41 out of 61 delegates.
