Ohio has Clinton +13 and a 94% probability of winning.

So, no. Those next few states probably won't make you feel better.

is an absurdity. Why arent states like Illinois, New York, and the entire West Coast given this position.

Nobody gives a shit about states that couldn't be won if the Democrat was the only candidate on the presidential ballot.

And Bernie pulled in $40 million last month. He's gonna be around for the long haul.

The only reason for a prolonged primary season is to line the pockets of advertisers and consultants.
