Santa Fe is out - that will shift back to Clinton.

Unless you've drilled down to the precincts out, Santa Fe County is basically 50/50 (tilt Clinton). ABQ is also out, and is 50/50 as well (tilt Sanders).

NM should pretty much hold as is.

[Seriously?]

Wonder when we'll see the CA call here.

No exit poll, they'll need more election day raw vote total is my guess. Clinton should obviously hold on.

CA can be frustrating with how slowly with the pace of how slowly the vote totals pour in.

[Seriously?]

CA has been stuck at 33% reporting for a while now. Is this really all we're getting tonight? That's annoying.

It's California. They are always terrible at reporting election day votes there. It'll be 4 am (East Coast time) and they'll still not be close to completely done (especially in San Fran, Oakland (Alameda) and LA Counties).

Biggest thing is no exit poll. If there was one, this would have been called for Hillary! a long time ago.

[Seriously?]

Meh. He's just ending on a high note. He'll grudgingly come around in the next week or two, and leave fights to convention speaking time, rules, platform, etc.

Maybe.....

The only card Sanders will have left is to basically turn just about every superdelegate his way. That only happens if Hillary! loses the FBI primary gets indicted and the Democrats abandon Hillary!, which is very unlikely. The math is not there otherwise.

We'll see if he has his come to Jesus moment after he meets with Obama later this week.

[Seriously?]

Isn't Hillary going to end up with a majority of pledged delegates at the end of this?

Seriously, what's the fcking point?

Christ.  I thought I was disappointed a couple hours ago.

I'm done defending him.

Majority of pledged delegates, yes.
Majority of the vote nationwide, yes.

Enough to absolutely, positively secure the nomination w/o superdelegates? Not quite.

The handwriting will be on the wall soon enough for Sanders. There's not a viable path without an FBI indictment and the supers defecting. Even with an indictment, which is very unlikely, she still might be able to get to the magic number if a handful of supers stay with her.

[Seriously?]

The Bern! gaining on Hillary!

Sanders breaks 40% for the first time all night in Cali with 43% in. Hillary! falls to 59%.
