Tomorrow is the beginning of the end: Puerto Rico/US Virgin Island June 4-5 primaries

Hillary needs about 70. By the end of the weekend, she will be down to 25? 30? Who knows exactly with SDs coming on board everyday - and some obvious SDs who won't make a public announcement so the DNC appears unbiased. Heck, this thing could be over before June 7.

Needed to win nomination: 2,383
Hillary Clinton: 2,313 (includes 544 super delegates
Bernie Sanders: 1,546 (includes 45 super delegates)
Not yet allocated: 906

Officially. Nor Obama.

The "real" count now is probably 60. Before June 7, it could be 2 dozen at the moment NJ opens the door.

There are a total of 4,051 pledged delegates; 2,026 gains the majority.

Right now, she has 1,769. So she needs only 257 (~ 35%) of the 761 pledged delegates to be decided between tomorrow and Tuesday night. (Another 20 from DC will be decided on 6/14.)

That will give her the majority of pledged delegates, super-delegates and of course, millions more in actual votes.
