The long and short appears to be that these are estimates based on current projections, so they will change, and different orgs use different formulas.

So I figured I'd pick a site and stick with it, but it's always good to get a second opinion, so no worries!

Not sure about the Pete and Amy's delegates but I think they vote for their candidates on the first round, then after that they can change their vote.

Also: the NPR numbers include all the delegates awarded so far, even where final vote tallies haven't been announced, as in CA. So that explains the discrepancies from other partial counts.

If he fails to secure the nomination, it will be because the DNC conspired against him.

If he secures the nomination but fails to win the general election, it will be because the DNC didn't adequately support him.

The bottom line is this: Sanders bears no responsibility for negative performance; he's simply a noble, principled victim.

I will of course vote for him if he lands on the ballot, but I've already seen this playing out on social media.

will be that he is about 30 delegates in the LEAD.

And that they were talking about a good night for him being 100-150 delegates BEHIND just a few days ago (I acutally saw him say this a few days ago).

Most likely scenario has Biden ahead by 50-ish delegates after yesterday.

Remarkable.
