NY Times will no longer include super delegates in their count.

[SoapBox]

I saw this on reddit...so here is the NYT page with delegate counts. WAY different than what is being pushed on the MSM channels.

1. We should thank them.

I realize they're probably only doing this because including them was so obviously biased and Berners kept pointing it out every minute of the day on social media, but, hey, at least they're responding to us and the truth.

[Kittycat]

19. I did.

Tweeted thanks this AM.

Thank you to the OP for sharing.

2. Kudos to the NYT!

Very few are doing it right.

3. I tried to tell a Hillary supporter that she doesn't have any more Supers to gain...

and she can lose them so it's not right counting votes that aren't cast. All I got was la la la la la I am not listening in response.

4. Yes!

No more misleading numbers. Hillary can have her honest lead and wait til we're all done voting to try and declare victory.

5. Awesome! Even though it took pissed off readers to make 'em come clean! n/t

[CdnExtraNational]

6. This is a sign...

The establishment candidate is not so inevitable anymore.

Progressives need to start drawing lines in the sand.

Let the ones standing on the wrong side of history have second thoughts.

7. They never should have to begin with. nt

[tomm2thumbs]

8. maybe they learned from Clinton/Obama when delegates fled her campaign

they have no significance until all the votes are counted by actual voters

[Lordquinton]

9. It's great that they finally did this

but the damage has been done. The number of people who looked at the false numbers and decided that it was too far gone and stayed home could have had a grave impact on the results.

10. I wondered what all the screaming was about.

[Major Hogwash]

11. So now those delegates are no longer super.

They're just biding their time until the convention.

[Hatchling]

23. Sort of "Delegates-in-Waiting". nt

[lovemydog]

12. Good

[dchill]

13. Hmm. Wonder why?

[Divernan]

14. They accessed HRC's internal polling/saw handwriting on the wall?

She continues to go down. (Something which shocks the hell out of Bill!)

[dchill]

15. But that would get them in trouble with DU HRC Headquarters!

[pat_k]

16. That's the way to do it! (nt)

[stillwaiting]

17. This is good, but the damage may have already been done. I hope it hasn't.

We must demand an end to superdelegates. It must be organized, and it must be demanded.

If the Democratic Party ends the superdelegates as a concession to Sanders supporters, it might help Sanders supporters support Clinton a bit more (should Clinton be the nominee). Some concession is going to need to be made after this hideous Primary.

[TBF]

18. Yes - although they still mention them

I am a web and phone subscriber. I just sent them an email to thank them for changing the way they are presenting their info. It is a start.

And I told them what I am telling everyone else who will listen:

I am supporting Bernie Sanders. I am continuing to donate to him. And I EXPECT a fair contest. No weighted coin tosses, no more Bill Clinton w/the Bullhorn. No money for the DNC. If shenanigans continue I will be changing my registration to indy and voting Green (not that it matters since I'm in Texas and my county is 3/4 republican, but still).

This after voting for every democratic nominee for president since 1992.

I have had it.

[bernbabe]

20. Mentioning them is fine

they also say that the supers can switch their vote at any time before the convention and may do that if Bernie ends up with more elected delegates.

[TBF]

21. Yes, it's an improvement over where we were.

baby steps some days.

[ljm2002]

22. That is great news!

Thanks to the NYT, and thanks to you for letting us know!

It certainly does look different than what most of the media is reporting, doesn't it? Doesn't look all that insurmountable all of a sudden.

[rgbecker]

24. Another Miracle!

The media is catching on and feeling the need to report the Bern!
