Having checked some previous numbers, around 53-57% of the votes are coming out of Cook County.
Looking at Cook, back in 08.. 59% of votes from Chicago and 41% from non-Chicago parts of Cook County.
Obama won Chicago by a 73-25 margin in that election, winning 36 wards. He carried 13 wards with over 90% of the vote. IIRC, most of the wards Hillary won over Obama were majority Hispanic.
I have a reasonable hunch that Sanders is just going to get crushed in parts of Chicago. I don't think that Sanders campaign is able or prepared to compete against 'organizations' in Chicago.
I don't know how the math adds up if Hillary rolls in Chicago/Cook, but it just seems like a bad fit for Bernie's campaign organization to really bring in support.
