HRC # 45
Curently HRC is at 1776 pledge delegates.
A majority of the total pledged delegates is 2026 (half +1 of the total pledged delegates available 4051.)
HRC only needs 250 (2026-1776=250) pledged delegates to reach majority.
Even if she gets only 50% in PR, NJ and Ca that will be 332 additional pledged delegate.
1776 + 332 = 2108 BAM! Done! Over! Time to turn out the light.
Oh and one more thing,
HRC is only 607 delegates away from the 2383 for an outright win. After Tuesday she'll be even closer, probably cut that number by 400 delegates. Which means she'll only need 207 super delegates. She already has 504.
