Support NeoGAF

Yeah supers were put in place specifically to guard AGAINST the notion of a contested Democratic convention.

I guess if Bernie somehow started to swinging the momentum hugely in his favor coupled with a legit Hilary scandal and he could get enough of the SDs to jump ship and throw a wrench into things. I don't see that happening tho.

Looks like NYC is about 59-41 for Clinton, but outside of NYC so far things are heavily favoring Bernie. Question remains as to whether Bernie can make up that that 10% in the non-NYC areas of the state. I'm guessing it'll end up about 51-49, but not sure who for.

p.s. it's also a bit suspect about 100,000 people in Brooklyn "falling off" the rolls. NYC election officials are not happy.

Jesus Christ enough with the "falling off' bullshit conspiracy crap

 

[Oceanwind]

Wow, are the exit polls just completely off? Who are they polling?

 

[Bronx-Man]

God damn. The hate for Sanders and his voters on here is disgusting.

Oh no, I voted for Sanders in my primary. I just despise Staten Island. It's the drunk racist uncle of the 5 boroughs.

maybe they oversampled NYU students in the audience from the debate

[Hasphat'sAnts]

So exits expect Clinton to win by 5 points and she's outperforming these projections across the board?

 

[Butts-a-plenty]

 

[Xe4]

At some point, they'll have to concede that the exit polls were incorrect. We have yet to see any huge swings in the data as of yet.

I'd wait until 50% to say something like that. Still, it's not looking like it's going to be as close as exit polls were suggesting. I still wouldn't be surprised for it to drop a bit, although not 8 points.

i really don't get it. unless all of neogaf make the majority of their income through capital gains. scust.

 

[eBay Huckster]

eBay huckster just posted benchmark politics calling the race at around 65-35 Hillary.

also fwiw, turns out we all misread that tweet - they're calling at 30%, margin's probably gonna be around where it is now

Brian Williams just called Trump "the next president of the United States" in a serious tone, and I nearly threw up.

This is what I don't understand people not getting. Have supers ever gone against what the voters were doing? Pretty sure they haven't.

Hillary simply is in the lead - and by quite a bit. From states won to total votes and momentum. Supers aren't supposed to go against that and won't. Hence them siding with Hillary.

Like you said, if Bernie actually was outperforming and leading or at least showing more momentum, supers would start going for him.

 

[AmyS]

CNN called it for Trump, and he's speaking now.

It's very likely and very exciting!

Bernie's winning Monroe?

Huh... weird. I know almost nobody who was going for Bernie.

Best news of the night is Cruz can't get to 1237 anymore, so he should take his own advice and drop out.

30% and still at 60 40, exit polls must have fucked up big somehow

Is Brian Williams back on TV or did he make this comment from a Wallmart where he was standing at the checkout wearing a dressing gown while holding a giant pack of ramen noodles?

 

[TheOfficeMut]

God damn. The hate for Sanders and his voters on here is disgusting.

The fuck? Staten Island has sucked long before Bernie even started running. Get out of here. It has nothing to do with the polls. Lol

 

[pigeon]

Oh my b. 120 character primary news source strikes again.

It's easy to understand. He's a populist who doesn't care about the Democratic party, and he's lowering himself to attack Hillary when he promised this would be a campaign of ideas.

Time for him to ride off into the sunset.

LOL! Two worlds was right all along!!!

They're singlehandedly responsible for around a fourth of trumps votes in NY right now

You wish.

He's been demoted to MSNBC.

 

[RustyNails]

Time to facebank!! We need 1 billion more phonecalls to turn NY bernie!!!

 

[ivysaur12]

Oh oh oh, not that she's going to win by 30%, that they'll make a call when 30% of the race is in. But she'll probably win by about 10-15% based on their model, probably closer to 15%.

 

[akira28]

So Trump or Hillary? a win/win as far as I'm concerned.

 

[gutter_trash]

I can't keep staring at the blonde

Trump has a quota for every speech.

 

[TheOfficeMut]

Then I take that back - it has everything to do with the polls!

 

[Barzul]

So much greatness !

Like Dr. Phil says, its ok to look.

 

[cruets]

Who's the hottie behind Trump?

 

[boiled goose]

great results!
all party primaries should be closed IMO

those who aren't happy with that can go make their own party

Disagree. I think it might be in the best interest of parties to have open primaries (or at least Semi open, like MA where you have to choose one). Independents vote in the general, and you want to make sure you have the strongest candidate

Looks like a big solid win for Hillary. Too large for Sanders to spin it positively IMO.

 

[Sectorseven]

Link to Trump speech?

 

[legacyzero]

KEY RACE ALERT: I need another adult beverage.

Fixed

EDIT: MSNBC calls New York for Hillary

Benchmark Politics ‏@benchmarkpol 8m8 minutes ago

Why are the exit polls wrong? Well, Bernie is killing it in Buffalo. We know that the exit polling was done heavily there.

 

[eyeball_kid]

Jesus Christ enough with the "falling off' bullshit conspiracy crap

Conspiracy? I heard it on NPR man.

NY Daily News:

Mayor de Blasio issued a statement charging that entire buildings and city blocks of voters were among the 126,000 voters purged from the Brooklyn books since last fall.

“These errors indicate that additional major reforms will be needed to the Board of Election,” said de Blasio. “The perception that numerous voters may have been disenfranchised undermines the integrity of the entire electoral process, and must be fixed.”

I don't know but he's hot.
