Hillary won't pick up many delegates in PA. They award many of the delegates based on congressional district. The # of delegates in a CD is based on how many people voted Democrat last time.

Barack will win the black districts overwhelmingly. Hillary will win the (bitter) rural districts. But the rural districts have usually four delegates. So unless Hillary gets above 62.5%, the delegates will be split 2-2. As long as Barack gets 12.5%, he'll get one of the four delegates. So even a blowout by Hillary won't yield many delegates. There are some state-wide allocated delegates, but on the CD allocated ones, she won't win that many.
