He has no predictions yet for Alabama, Colorado and Minnesota, but Hillary is ahead in the polls in all three. The only state that he has predicted with certainty that will go to Sanders is VT. There are no polls on American Samoa, but they will only send 10 delegates.

Clinton 49.6% Sanders 39.0% - Clinton +10.6%

Looks like you are right. I'll take your polling aggregate and raise you an actual super Tuesday win(as in a majority of delegates, not states). Loser owes winner 538 random emojis as an OP

But I will bet he takes it with no less than 90% of the vote! and that he takes a majority of all pledged delegates up on super Tuesday

I'm on for second part: He (Bernie) takes a majority of all pledged delegates up on super Tuesday. You see I only bet on sure things, or those that have at least a 95% chance of happening. The chances of Hillary of winning at least two delegates more than Bernie in SC are in that range.
