Southern state delegates remaining: 376 (incl. FL); Everywhere else delegates remaining: 2,354.

Florida, North Carolina and Kentucky. That's it. NC has trended to tighten recently, too.

There won't be any other opportunities for HIllary's Southern Strategy to give huge win margins.

Go Bernie!

Forms that are mailed must be received or postmarked by the deadline. Party Affiliation: North Carolina has a semi-open primary. Unaffiliated voters may cast their vote in any one recognized party's primary but registered party members can only vote their party's ballot.

I hope Bernie goes to Kentucky and quotes Henry Clay:

"I had rather be right than be President."

"Government is a trust, and the officers of the government are trustees; and both the trust and the trustees are created for the benefit of the people."

-Henry Clay
