2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumTick Tock...
Delegate allocation last night, from The Green Papers:
Oregon: Clinton 26, Sanders 35
http://www.thegreenpapers.com/P16/OR-D
Kentucky: Clinton 28, Sanders 27
http://www.thegreenpapers.com/P16/KY-D
Sanders is +8 on the night.
Prior to last night, Clinton was up 1717 to 1437 (+280)
This morning (if the Oregon numbers hold), Clinton is up 1771 to 1499 (+272)
And 2 more primaries, with 116 delegates, come off the board.
There have now been 3270 out of 4051 pledged delegates awarded, leaving 781 still available.
To reach a majority of pledged delegates, a candidate needs 2026.
Clinton needs 255 out of the remaining 781 to win a majority of pledged delegates (32.65%)
Sanders needs 527 out of the remaining 781 to win a majority of pledged delegates (67.48%)

(1,947 posts)Hmmm says something about those who vetted her. Was it the same person who lost 900 legislative seats, a ton of governorships, and many senate and house seats? She's been vetted, and the American people are reacting to that vetting. Enjoy your Corporate Majesty.

And if she beats Trump, you'll be able to complain about her for 8 years.

Clinton's pledged delegate lead was reduced by less than 3%.
