Hillary is like 70 away from the nomination, Bernie has to win 837 out of the 906 remaining. Bernie may win the popular vote in California, but it would have to be very lopsided to keep her from getting the 70 she needs. But she will pick up the 70 between California with 475 and New Jersey with 126.

A lot of useless speculation in my opinion. Her lies carried her too far into the nomination process. Had her lies been exposed very early on, then Bernie most likely would have won.

Well the reason she has so many delegates is because she has been awarded several hundred super delegates right at the beginning.

Actually, Hillary! is about 610 away from the nomination, if you drop the superdelegates. That's the point of the story - they are uncommitted and can switch right up until the end unlike the results of caucuses and primaries.

It's still anyone's game because the margin of victory at this point will be 100% decided by the superdelegates. Whoever gets those will win the nomination. And that means the party leaders - the superdelegates - have to decide to support the anointed (Hillary!) or to feel the Bern.
