+++Meanwhile, back on planet Earth, Obama leads by about 10 delegates less than he did yesterday+++

[DanTex]

Which means he still has an insurmountable lead.

1. Oh, golly, that means we'll have to wait until May 20th to get a mathematical majority!

Whatever will we do?!

[Thrill]

2. This is all irrelevant after Obama wins Oregon by double digits

[mrreowwr_kittty]

3. Which still means he leads by a lot. Nice try, noob. nt

[DanTex]

5. That's what I meant

Sorry if it was unclear. It was a response to the other thread.

7. Sorry!

Must've been a little testy from the idiocy on display in GD-P this evening.

Welcome to DU! :hi:

[DanTex]

11. No worries!

And thanks.

And GO BARACK OBAMA!

[knixphan]

14. ditto welcome!

4. Don't forget the 4 SD's and 2 PD's he got today not counting WV

:hi:

[johnnydrama]

6. and the pd's

are a switch, so 2 pd's is a net gain of 4!

[Yael]

12. SHe lost 3 PDs today. 2 in Ohio and 1 in DC. WIth a 10 pt WV, that gives her 7

[Yael]

8. Perhaps math isn't your strong suit?

Tonight will be 19-9 Hillary. Net of 10.

WHat happened today?

Ohio certification took 2 from her and gave it to Obama: -2

4 SDs declared for Obama: +4

1 Pledged in DC declared for Obama (was pledged Hillary): -1

So, as of this morning, with her 10 point victory (meaning INCLUDING it), she netted +7.

HRC 19 - 3 = 16

Obama netted 7, plus the 9 from WV, for a total of +16

Looks about even steven to me.

[johnnydrama]

13. actually

each time a pledged delegate gets changed from Hillary to Obama, that's a margin of +2 for Obama.

So as I look at it.

+10 for Hill in WV.
-4 super delegates
-4 ohio cetification
-2 pledged delegate switch

= even on the day.

[Yael]

15. Indeed -- that is another way of looking at it

I already edited to show it that way as it made more sense.

Great minds!!!

9. I Suspect By The End Of The Week Enough SD's Will Endorse Him The Week Will Be A Net Loss For Her

B-)

[Yael]

16. Today was a dead tie -- all he needs is 1 to declare tonight and in the 24 hour period

He picks up 17 to her 16.

Assuming they end 19-9 tonight, his pickup of 7 today (and her loss of 3) has them even at 16.
