Currently her lead is 1767-1488 or 279 pledged delegates.
Remaining states are
Virgin Islands (7)
Puerto Rico (60!!)  << how on earth does PR have so many delegates?
California (475)
Montana (21)
New Jersey (126)
New Mexico (34)
North Dakota (18)
South Dakota (20)
Washington DC (20)

My prediction:
+3 in VI (5-2)
+20 in PR (40-20)
+75 in California (275-200)
-5 in Montana (8-13)
+30 in New Jersey (78-48)
+6 in New Mexico (20-14)
-6 in North Dakota (6-12)
-2 in South Dakota (9-11)
+10 in DC (15-5)
Total:  +131 for a final lead of 410.

By the way she needs to win by +715 to reach Bernie's idiotic threshold of winning when superdelegates are only counted in the denominator but not the numerator.  Have fun trying to reach that.

I'm going to guess around 350.

My guess:

VI: +3
PR: +24
CA: +29
NJ: +20
NM: +4
DC: +8

MT: +7
ND: +8
SD: +2


So I'll say 300-350, though with 350-400 being very possible as well.

South Dakota better not further screw up the map.

Virgin Islands is 90% black. I wouldn't be surprised if Sanders fails to reach viability.

Also, FWIW Benchmark released their numbers for the big 3 of the June 7 primaries.

California: 56-44 Clinton
New Jersey: 64-36 Clinton
New Mexico: 57-43 Clinton

Wonder if Hillary could sweep all Puerto Rico delegates... would be unreal to imagine Sanders under the 15% threshold there?

It's possible. Bill got 95% there in 1992 even though he was still fighting with Jerry Brown.

250-300. I think Sanders can pull off a narrow California win.

Even disregarding the demographic challenges, are you aware that he has decided not to air TV ads and that half his California staff has resigned?
