Tuesday's primary contests put Hillary Clinton fewer than 100 delegates short of clinching the nomination.
Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders(I-Vt.) split the two states — Clinton narrowly won in Kentucky, while Sanders won big in Oregon. But for the night, Sanders fell short of the blowout margins he needs to begin to catch up to the front-runner.

Without the supergdelegates, I don't think Hillary will be able to reach the magic number. It depends on how she does in California and New Jersey.
Don’t throw in the towel, Bernie! Fight to the bitter end! Man the barricades, it’s all power to the proletariat and the workers’ Soviets!
Oh, and all you Bernie supporters out there, keep the faith, baby! You are the vanguard of the revolution. Those Hillary fascists are trying to keep you down...don’t let them do it!
(Oh, and after they do oppress you at the convention, as they will, just stay home in November. Don’t serve the machine.)
The Democrat convention will be Helter Skelter. Do something witchy Bernieist.
The media portrayed the GOP race as a nail biter...and the rat race as a yawn fest.
But the pledged delegate count is 1,767 vs 1,488....and Bernie has won 19 states.
I hope Bernie does take it to the convention
Notice how the MSM does not call the Democratic party imploding? Or fractured? Or split?
They only used those terms to describe the Republican party when Cruz still had a chance at the nomination.
They are ignoring the democratic party infighting, it is actually 100x worse then the Republican party one. If their even was one.

You are correct. What I wonder about is how flexible the Superdelegates are. For example, what would they do if Obama put out the word to vote for Biden or Bernie instead of Hillary? And what if Obama/Lynch leaked a “probable indictment” story or two?
Could happen. Hillary really needs to win this outright. And I believe that she is unlikely to do so.
It will be fun to watch the networks declare that Hillary has the nomination won based on super-delegates.
The Sanders supporters will go crazy.
The fun may be just beginning...
The media is not talking about it but the Nevada disaster is only the beginning...Bernie supporters will help Trump win!
They're not officially committed, no, but they're party establishment-types who have openly stated again and again they're supporting Clinton, and they have the cover to do so, when she's won over three million more votes than Sanders nationally.
The odds that they're going to abandon her in mass numbers at this point for Sanders is probably even lower than Bernie winning California with over 70% of the vote.
Not to mention, they’re probably scared to vote against the clinton crime syndicate. Better to take their chances with some pissed off young socialists.
It depends on who she can blackmail with those old FBI files.
