Poor Trump.  He must be quaking in his shoes by now!

Wonder how Michael Moore is doing right about now.. 🤡

"South Carolina is not representative of the United States"

"That’s just the facts, South Carolina will have absolutely no impact on the November 3rd election"

 

Biden is not only taking Michigan so far, but beating Bernie in counties like Oakland/Macomb/Wayne/Genesee. Bernie only winning in Kent. Looks like the Black vote is coming out for Joe.

 

LOL...

 

 

The grifter trainwreck.

Biden projected to win Michigan.

 

52% in

 

Biden 53.35%

Bernie 40.12%

 

Rest 2.5% and under. Biden has been trending upwards. Was 51-42. Lots of rural areas left to count where he's likely to run up the numbers.

 

Right now Bernie's just won Kent, Kalamazoo, and Washtenaw.. 3. Biden so far has won like 30+.

[Burnt Reynolds 5,058]

In a surprise twist, Buttigieg wins Michigan!

 

 

[Dashinka 23,245]

So is Bernie going to endure another week?

[Burnt Reynolds 5,058]

The two states Bernie is apparently leading in are taking forever to actually count (North Dakota and Washington). 

 

Washington is interesting because they clearly did some form of early/mail in balloting and you have a situation where around 35% of votes cast are for people who had dropped out.

So they gave the win in ND to Bernie and say WA is too close to call.

 

Biden was given ID, MO, MS, MI. 

 

As expected, establishment media and Dems are trying to drag Joe's carcass over the finish line, calling to cancel debates henceforth.

[Burnt Reynolds 5,058]

 

Don't need to have Glenn's political leanings to understand the logic is sound.

[Burnt Reynolds 5,058]

Some people are only now calling California for Bernie.

 

There were a ton of mail-in ballots apparently still outstanding, and thus far Bernie's lead shrank from around 9% to now 5-6%.

 

Also, today was the caucus for Northern Mariana Islands, with 6 delegates. 

 

Looks like 134 votes were cast, 84 for Sanders, 48 for Biden, 2 uncommitted:

Sanders 62.7% (4 delegates)

Biden 35.8% (2 delegates)

Uncommitted 1.5%

 

Delegate count:

Biden 854

Sanders 702

 

Sanders would need around 55-57% of the votes from here on out to reach the threshold of delegates, and he's rarely reaching above 30-45% now. Biden would need just under 50%.

 

It's actually doable for Biden, albeit smaller chances, and very unlikely for Sanders.

 

On Tuesday the states voting are: 

Arizona (still going ahead)
Florida (still going ahead with voting)
Illinois (some chaos here but still looks like going forward with voting)
Ohio (still going ahead with voting)

 

Louisiana's April 4th vote looks postponed to June 20th.

Georgia's March 24th vote postponed until May.

Ohio postponed their primary last night.

 

Other 3 states (AZ/FL/IL) apparently still voting.

 

FL already called for Biden, he's up 60% to Bernie's 22%.

 

Also.. 

 

 

[Burnt Reynolds 5,058]

Bernie was supposed to be much closer in IL..

 

65% in

Biden 58.98%

Bernie 36.26%

 

72% in

Biden 59.02%

Bernie 36.26%

 

IL called for Biden

 

Nothing yet for AZ. 

 

Anyways, should expect a Bernie drop out, Biden is going to win one way or another. 

[Burnt Reynolds 5,058]

93% in for AZ

Biden 44.02%

Bernie 31.98%

 

Naturally, called for Biden.

 

Now Bernie and the DNC are pondering with their focus group data whether or not its better for Bernie to stick it out and keep people's interest in Democrats a bit longer, or that Bernie supporters can psychologically transition to Joe. 

[Dashinka 23,245]

This coronavirus thing is the best thing for Biden, he is way out of the spotlight and free from attacking his constituents.

[Burnt Reynolds 5,058]

As states figure out to fully implement a mail in ballot system..

 

 

 

Quote

 

Sanders still sees ‘narrow path’ to win Democratic nomination

 

In another sign that Sen. Bernie Sanders is in no rush to drop out of the White House race, the populist lawmaker from Vermont touted his “strong grassroots movement” and said “there is a path” for him to come back and defeat former Vice President Joe Biden for the Democratic presidential nomination.

Asked Monday night by host Seth Meyers in an appearance on "Late Night with Seth Meyers" why he’s staying in the race, Sanders answered confidently: “We’re about 300 delegates behind. Biden has 1,200. We have 900. There is a path.”
