538's final projection for Mississippi: Clinton 79.3, Sanders 14.5.

[Chichiri]

The confidence intervals are fairly wide, meaning that the actual result may end up a fair bit farther away -- however, they trend outward, meaning Hillary will likely take more than 79.3%. If Bernie gets less than 15% of the vote, he will take no delegates from this state.

Mississippi has 33 delegates; Hillary leads Bernie by 199.

1. Wow.

Just wow.

2. No delegates for Bernie? Has there been a Sanders sighting in Mississippi?

3. K & R!

7. I don't think I'd say that at all.

I think it has a different point of view than some other states, but I'm not sure I'd use that descriptor.

I've never lived there, of course, so I have no real way to judge the people of Mississippi. I assume you're more familiar with the state, based on your own experience. You do live there, right?

9. Born and raised there.nt

[MineralMan]

10. Well, see...you're from there.

So, I guess you'd have first-hand knowledge of the enlightenment measure scale of the people there. I've only passed through the state a few times. Maybe I met the wrong people, because the ones I met seemed like reasonable, smart people.

11. Many years ago I developed a political outcome prediction strategy that

almost always turned out as I predicted. Simple. I would decide what is the worst possible political move they could make and that what they almost always did. There were some exceptions but not many.

5. I'll be surprised if Bernie fails to meet the 15% threshold.

That would be a shocking result, even in Mississippi. If he got zero delegates in that state, it would be a crushing loss for him.

I think he'll probably get 20% in that state. But I'm not 538, so my projection is based on a lot less information than they have.

6. African Americans make up a large proportion of Democratic voters in Mississippi

8. I would be shocked if Bernie met the threshold in that state so it's moot.

13. VERY ENCOURAGING news! Thanks for posting this!!

14. I did my part for Bernie and voted for him today.

It seems strange to me because there are quite a few folks in my area that support him. I've encouraged everyone that is a Democrat to make their voices heard. It is out of my hands at this point, but there is still an hour and a half before the polls close.

I went to the polls and cast my vote for Bernie with a clear conscience and no regrets.

15. Anyone know when the results will start coming in?

[Chichiri]

16. I'm sure Mississippi will be called a win for Hillary immediately . . .

. . . and it'll be over the next few hours that results start coming in.

[NWCorona]

18. I'm sure. I just like to see the percentages even though

It will be a blow out. I don’t think he'll be locked out tho

[Chichiri]

19. I don't think he'll be locked out either. But we can dream. nt

[NWCorona]

20. Hey, I'm a Bernie supporter but I can understand where you are

Coming from lol! It should be a wild night.

Good luck!

[Chichiri]

21. Thanks, you too! nt
