Is it possible we're looking at an end to the Dem primary before month is over? Hillary is polling strong in NY, PA, and Maryland. I can't imagine even winning CA would even matter if Clinton wins by 20 pt margins in NY and PA (which together almost match CA in delegates).

As John King at CNN pointed out a few minutes ago during their coverage, if Sanders were to win each of the remaining states by 10 points, he still wouldn't catch Clinton. It's almost certainly already over but unless something massive changes, I think you're right, by the end of the month it'll be hard to deny.

Fox called it for Bernie

What were the margins? If they're 10% or so, as were predicted, it was basically a loss for him.

We don't know yet


lmao there were so few 18-29 GOP voters that they could not provide relevant statistical exit poll data about them

 

[Rafy]

Guardian has Bernie at 58% with 1.4% reporting so far (4 counties)

 

[eyeball_kid]

NPR showing with 1.4% of precincts,
58% ...Sanders
42% ...Clinton

 

[Otnopolit]

NBC News has projected Sanders and Cruz to win the Wisconsin primary tonight! Blocked Teflon Don!

 

[Joeytj]

Fox called it for Bernie

It's more of a big deal on the Republican side, so yeah. That, plus football I guess.

NBC has called it for Cruz and Sanders. Poor Donald!

On the Dem side, it's just a waiting game to see the margins. Probably 5 point for Bernie or maybe more.

 

[eBay Huckster]

NPR showing with 1.4% of precincts,
58% ...Sanders
42% ...Clinton

that's probably gonna tighten a little bit as Milwaukee comes in (which will be partially offset by Dane County), guessing 55-45

e: there's also the possibility that it goes in the other direction, but the early returns are trending toward Milwaukee being close as heck

 

[mo60]

NBC News has projected Sanders and Cruz to win the Wisconsin primary tonight! Blocked Teflon Don!

Can Cruz stay above 50% since he is above 50% right now?

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

Wisconsin showing Illinois how to properly primary.

 

[AmyS]

Fox News calls WI for Cruz.

 

[eyeball_kid]

It's more of a big deal on the Republican side, so yeah.

I'd say it's a pretty big deal for Bernie if he can scrape out a 10+ point win, both for showing general momentum going in his direction (narrative of winning 6 out of last 7 states with significant margins) and for keeping his base energized going into NY.

 

[Mr. RPG]

I wonder how close Milwaukee will be.

It would be amazing if Bernie won it.

 

[Ashodin]

It's 57% Bernie 43% Clinton YES!

Looks like the margin is widening as votes come in

I'm going to guess 59% Bernie 41% Clinton for final results

CNN says Cruz takes WI, guess we goin' to brokered convention

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Kasich is doing terribly.

How the heck does he think he'll be the candidate if it goes to the convention? Nobody likes him.

As for Bernie

The exit polls suggest that Sanders has not fixed his problem with black voters. He is losing them by a margin of 74 percent to 26 percent in Wisconsin. Luckily for him, they made up just 9 percent of voters. Unfortunately for Sanders, they’ll likely make up more than 15 percent of voters in the biggest delegate prizes this month: Maryland, New York and Pennsylvania.

That's not good

 

[mo60]

It looks like Kasich is flopping in Wisconsin which is helping make it easier for Cruz to beat Donald in Wisconsin. Kasich vote share in Wisconsin should increase as the result keep on coming in.

 

[Kibbles]

Eww fox6 Milwaukee just said Ted Cruz won Wisconsin.

 

[Velcro Fly]

contesTED convention

 

[Mr. RPG]

That's not good

Interesting, because the pre-election polls said differently.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Time for Kasich to GTFO

 

[Gutek]

Bernie on track to win the primaries.

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

bleh CNN showing 20% in 52.4 for Sanders 47.4 Clinton. Milwaukee going like Chicago.

 

[Mr. RPG]

Bernie's lead is going to go back up.

 

[Nokagi]

contesTED convention

Can't wait.

 

[smokeymicpot]

Few sites called it for Bernie already.

 

[Joeytj]

I'd say it's a pretty big deal for Bernie if he can scrape out a 10+ point win, both for showing general momentum going in his direction (narrative of winning 6 out of last 7 states with significant margins) and for keeping his base energized going into NY.

Yeah, but it's not expected, that's what I'm saying. It's now at 20% and Milwaukee just came, dropping the margin to ~5% points.

 

[DR2K]

Bernie's lead is going to go back up.

Is he going to cut his delegate loss tonight by single or double digits?

 

[Miles X]

Is he going to cut his delegate loss tonight by single or double digits?

Should be around 10, give or take 1 or 2.

 

[Velcro Fly]

Bernie is going to need to win by a whole lot more than he is to catch up

 

[eBay Huckster]

Is he going to cut his delegate loss tonight by single or double digits?

Assuming it gets back up to 55-45 and stays there like I guessed: single.

(Anything more than that: double. Anything less: mess.)

 

[Mr. RPG]

Is he going to cut his delegate loss tonight by single or double digits?

Probably just 4-10 delegates.

There are other reasons though why this win will be good for him. It's not just about delegates.

 

[Haribi]

So how likely is a contested convention to happen now after the Wisconsin results?

 

[Kaladin]

So is Wisconsin an all or nothing state for with DEM or REP or is it split?

 

[eyeball_kid]

Yeah, but it's not expected, that's what I'm saying. It's now at 18% and Milwaukee just came, dropping the margin to ~5% points.

Yeah, looks like Milwaukee is favoring Clinton. I always thought it was a fairly progressive city. But many counties aren't reporting yet, so it looks like those numbers could go back up.

 

[Sobriquet]

Yo Rubio is still beating Kasich lol

 

[Macho Madness]

So is Wisconsin an all or nothing state for with DEM or REP or is it split?

proportional on both sides

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Democrats have no winner take all states

 

[NateDrake]

Sanders has won Wisconsin, according to A.P.

 

[Rafy]

The Guardian and NYT called it for Bernie

 

[numble]

proportional on both sides

It's not proportional on the Republican side. Winner-take-all by district and for statewide delegates.

 

[Ashodin]

YEAH HE DID IT

Now just the margins. Get that 15% +!

 

[Kaladin]

proportional on both sides

Democrats have no winner take all states

Ah, thank you. I remember that about the Dems now but it is so confusing how it is done.

 

[Miles X]

Can't wait to get tonight and Saturday out of the way so we can continue another Hillary clean sweep

 

[Mr. RPG]

Can't wait to get tonight and Saturday out of the way so we can continue Hillary's clean sweep

You're going to be very disappointed when he takes New York.

I can't wait for the meltdown.

 

[eBay Huckster]

You're going to be very disappointed when he takes New York.

I see we're in the "votes tallied as golf scores" universe

 

[Joeytj]

Yeah, looks like Milwaukee is favoring Clinton. I always thought it was a fairly progressive city. But many counties aren't reporting yet, so it looks like those numbers could go back up.

It's not just about progressives, the majority of Wisconsin's AA population is there, although it's not that big statewide, which is why Sanders will win it in the end.

EDIT: Looks like a done deal now.
