Hillary also won California and New York.

Now Bernie won California and is leading in New York. About 700 delegates in these 2 states alone. And Biden is only leading by 71.

Neither one would add anything to a Biden ticket, outside of Bloomy’s cash.

Biden will need a black woman on the ticket, or the blacks will stay home like they did in 2016.

Biden is more likable than Hillary. Might do better than her in the general election.

I am a bit disappointed that Bernie did not do better today but not surprised. He made some unforced errors with defending Castro and the Democrat establishment and media chose Biden. I doubt Bernie quits since by the time the vote is counted in California he'll have the most delegates.

Biden's senility and corruption we again be in the news, now or once he faces Trump.

CA rules on delegates here - from The Green Papers:

415 of 494 delegates to the Democratic National Convention are pledged to presidential contenders based on the results of the voting in today's California Presidential Primary. A mandatory 15 percent threshold is required in order for a presidential contender to be pledged National Convention delegates at either the congressional district or statewide level. How the Democratic Proportional Delegate Allocation Math works.

271 district delegates are to be pledged proportionally to presidential contenders based on the primary results in each of the State's 53 congressional districts.

144 delegates are to be pledged to presidential contenders based on the primary vote statewide.

90 at-large National Convention delegates

54 Pledged PLEOs

Green Papers

Biden should have been the candidate to follow Obama, (Like any VP normally would) but he was not. There’s a reason why. As difficult as it may seem to us Hillary is/was immensely popular among Democrats, Biden is more like Bob Dole in 1996. He’s just the designated loser if he wins the primary. He will never be President. Unless he makes Bernie VP (not happening) the Dems lose the Bernie crowds and excitement. It is a lose lose for the Dems and they know it. I see a contested convention possible up to a 3rd ballot. The party is splintered.

“Biden will need a black woman on the ticket”

Biden has the black vote locked up. He is only winninhg because blacks are voting for him by huge margins.

But you are right. He needs a black woman on the ticket. That helps with the white lib turnout. White libs need to virtue signal or they feel too guilty.

Biden/Bloomberg might still happen if Biden falls short of a delegate majority at the convention. Or if Bloomberg buys him off. Two real possibilities.

Yes, Hillary is more popular among democrats but Biden beats her among blue collar voters in the rust belt. He will be more competitive in Michigan and Pennsylvania.

I’m in Texas and voted Tuesday. There were about 30 people there with most voting in the RAT primary. Only saw 2 people vote in the PUB primary. Like me most PUBs crossed over to take part in operation KAOS. Looks like we succeeded in keeping Plugs in the race.

Hunter has to appear in court in Batesville Arkansas with financial records soon. What a circus that is going to be.

The one who wins this will be the one one that wants to win the most. I don’t see Biden wanting it that bad. Campaigning is worse than being in a non-stop touring band. It’s relentless. People forget that.

And with Slow Joe he’s more than capable of making a gaffe or two. This thing is far from over. You can bet the DNC and the MSM are gonna hold their breaths when these three debate again!

Biden’s problem is there are just less unhappy/scared people than in 2016; that is going to be the obstacle for any Dem candidate. Trump didn’t outlaw abortion or homosexuality as scaremongers promised he would, and some of those libs from 2016 are more comfortable with him.

I did that calculation this morning too.

Only positives I can think of

Alot of Trump supporters figured they did not have to vote because he would win anyway.

Not all the dems will vote for Biden because of tribal issues.
