Sanders's Campaign smacks of desperation asking us to wait for California

[RandySF]

Bernie's probably going to win by 9 or 10 percent and Joe is well past the viability threshold. Obama did not ask us to wait after the 2008 primary and neither should Bernie. By the time we're done, we will have at least one more round of primaries and most will forget about the CA primary.

1. Wait for California for what?

The AP and half the media seem to have already called it with 50% of the vote in. I'm not sure what he thinks we should wait for.

In 2016, it took a month and it's been well-publicized that it will take a lot of time again this year. Most know that. I'm not sure what his issue is.

6. Maybe they don't know that the majority were already assigned.

There are only 144 left, according to NPR. Biden's up roughly 70 total, so it's not like Sanders is going to regain the lead from CA alone unless he does really well in late voting, which isn't likely to happen.

5. Maybe CA awards the winner of their primary 1991 delegates?

7. Wait for Cali before we do what? What is he saying?

[RandySF]

9. Bernie said he'll be tied with Joe for delegates after Ca' is done counting.

Most people doubt it, though.

10. Even if he is

The rest of the map does not look good for Bernie and he will never win in a contested convention.
