King B all about unity
Of course she can with more than 50% of Wayne out. It'll be close, but it's probably what will win her the state.

Obama's widest lead, by pledged delegates, was 40 less than hers was to start out the night. And she's going to gain on that.

So this is basically the Sanders camp now.
Really positive night for him despite what happens.

Either way, Michigan is going to be close. Much closer than anyone really thought.

It's so unexpected, but I absolutely love it haha.
Well, you have to look at the delegate totals, not just wins.
Because even if Sanders win, it will be a wash. Meanwhile, she continues to clean up in the southern states and he needs to start gaining significant ground, not moral victories.

He has been in a few other states. I think he's really only doing badly with black americans. (Not sure about latinos). Does great with arabs and native americans.

Trump also leading in Dearborn...
The fact that there's no winner take all states on the Democratic side is what makes Hilary's lead so commanding, and it's going to grow on March 15th.

I hope they look into why the polls were so off.
Something was clearly off about the way they were taking them for this state.

If the margin holds at 59/39, I'm not sure it will be enough.
He's up 15,000 right now.
Even if every state up for grabs next week swung 20% toward Bernie, he'd still walk away with fewer delegates than Hillary. That's why his wins need to be big - proportional allocation favors the person with the bigger initial lead, and there are no winner takes all states on the Democratic side.
Probably their screens.
Would the Arab population even vote in the Republican primary?

well maybe they should do some research into the topic before discussing it. Anyone knowledgeable of the race knows it ended on Super Tuesday. I feel 100% confident in that, save this post if you feel otherwise. Bernie can't win every rave April and Beyond by double digits and if he can't do that there's no way he can catch up I either the popular vote or the delegate math.
Somewhere earlier in the thread, some one posted that 7% Democratic voters choose to vote Republican to muck up their race, while 3% Repubs came over to the Dems side to mess with theirs. That could explain the poll numbers being off.

Muslims! You had ONE job!
So hypothetically speaking, what sort of an upswing does he need to garner comparative to current predictions, to actually have a shot at this?

If he wins every remaining state by 10 points he still loses

There's only really North Carolina and Kentucky left to vote of southern states.
Clinton is still a heavy favorite, but the races mostly shift now to other parts of the country. Outside of the south, most races have been pretty close.

Actually, going by Bernie's demographics, he has a good shot at winning every rave :V
Yeah I don't see how Bernie can win now.
If she's up by 23k in Wayne after 50%, she will surely be up by another roughly 23k (and possibly more so) after 100%.
That means Bernie needs to continue to make up at least 9k in all the other counties but they're nearly all done reporting or very low totals.
Hillary will win :/

I'm going to have to stay off the internet for several days if this ends up a Sanders win.
Maaaaaaaybe Clinton people will start taking turnout a bit seriously? And not vote for Republicans for funsies. Since some people bragged about doing this it'll at least be easy to hunt them down for their stupidity. Tonight alone has added a week to the campaign. Ugh.

Wasserman Schultz about to be on FoxNews.
After next week, assuming polling holds, he'd have to win every state remaining nearly 60-40 to tie. He'll win a few states left by more than that, but will lose some by at least that much as well.

Hillary won more delegates tonight, but Bernie winning Michigan would be a huge upset, even if he only gets a few more delegates than Hilary for the small victory margin.
He'd have to have Hilary in the South one sided type numbers in some big delegate states.
March 15 has largely been considered the date Bernie Sander's campaign finally picks up momentum. It's when the remainder of her best states (save for maybe NY? anyone aware of other big states for Clinton?) vote. A lot of analysts have suggested Bernie could gain traction after March 15, but that never mattered, because by that time it'd be too late.
If this is the showing for Michigan NOW, prior to when he was still supposed to be absolutely wiped off his ass... It's a tell. So was Kansas to be quite honest (70% was humongous).
Considering Bernie really only started gaining real attention and traction this past December, results have shown that the longer he stays in the race and the more exposure he gets, the more favor he earns.
What's the current pledged delegate count between Clinton and Sanders? I can't find a single site that provides them without the superdelegates and I was just able to find this information last week. GRRRR.

My point is, it's a poor attitude to people that you're going to want voting for Hillary come November. Bernie supporters are cheering for Bernie for reasons that are not always about winning the nomination. Condescending comments aren't helpful or unifying.
