The good news for Sanders is that the media never reports delegate counts (that's for Nerds like Nate and us) so Sanders is nearly guaranteed to get headlines like: "Sanders wins two states to Clinton's one".

Marco Rubio with 47,000 votes so far in AZ, whoops.

Man. Cruz must hate Rubio at this point, he's cost him so many states and now he may continue to do so after dropping out.

What does Bernie have to do tonight for Hillary supporters to consider tonight a win for Bernie and a loss for Hillary?

I'll say a net +30 delegates. Things get pretty desperate if he draws even or only gets a small positive overall in these three states.


He picked up a couple (and a half) in the Dems abroad primary so can I shrink that to +28?

EDIT: Pretty sure that's the early vote and that's a better break than we would expect.

Definitely not indicative of the overall result. They would have called it for Clinton already.


Wolf almost jumped with glee when he read it though.

Well you could add Rubio to Cruz and he still loses.

I don't think they are using accurate estimates for turnout in calculating the percentages though.

There are still people in line to vote in AZ

Yeah, you could add Rubio to Cruz and Trump would still win in early votes, but in (I think?) every single primary thus far Trump has done worse in day-of votes than early votes. Rubio's and other zombie candidates are a big part of why they're calling I think.

Has a state ever been called one way or another only for it to flip?

Looks like Sanders will gain slowly but eventually lose by 5-10 at least.

Calling a winner-take-all primary when people are still in line seems pretty damn stupid though if you want to get actual vote #s, and my impression was there are still people in line.

It's happened several times. Also where sometimes the delegate estimate is wrong and the winners of the popular vote and delegates don't match

Yeah really. They legally couldn't do it during the actual election but because it's a party thing, they try to wait till they "close".



There's no way they have counted 87% of the Phoenix vote

Looking over the Guardian map, there's a lot (almost all) of precincts that haven't reported. Will be interesting to see how that works out.

edit - oh wait, I thought Coconino county had all reported, something must be up with the site

Something is up with everything, there's no way they have been counting votes the whole time people have been voting and if they have that's extra stupid because people needed to vote more than they needed them counted tonight.

Wow the 538 people seem to actually read the muck in their Facebook feed. That or Harry Enten and I have similar thought processes about the merits of calling primaries.

Well, it would be reasonable that they have counted early votes at this point, no? Calling it based on those early votes while people are still in line to vote isn't really ok.

I just mean the percentages of turnout don't make sense. People are still voting in Phoenix so I have to presume none of the votes cast there today have been counted yet. They don't count while people are still waiting to vote as far as I understand. They can't spare the volunteers.
