California will be seismic

Roughly 1.8 Million new voter registrations. Which skew young big time.

Roughly 4.8 Million votes were cast in the 2008 Democratic primary.

I seriously doubt the poll sampling reflects 1 in 5 voters will be new registrations, thus I think Bernie will (again) exceed the polls, but will it be enough to gain an outrageous advantage of like 70%?

Considering the ad buys and the hasty return to Ca by camp weathervane, I have a really good feeling about Ca!

We have the truth on our side and it's a powerful weapon. Especially since it's hard to lie in this day and age.

Connect the dots. For instance, animal rights protester. Sanders Rally. Later, "Environment group endorses Hillary"
(though they sound like lobbyists, whatever didn't do full research yet)

Either way, you can see where they plan to attack Bernie next, which is going to be comical.

Electability . . . it matters

AND

electability = electoral votes

Where does Secretary Clinton make up for losing True Blue/True Bernie California and its 55 electoral votes?

Pointing at one state and saying "The votes in this state are magically more important; even though Clinton got more votes, Sanders should be counted the winner because his votes count for more" is not going to cut it.

Here is a FACT

If Hillary cannot take California in the GE (a possibility worth considering if she cannot even beat an "already defeated" Bernie in the primary with Jerry Brown standing next to her), she has to make up with 55 ELECTORAL VOTES that USED TO BE solid Blue.

Now take off your Hillary glasses and tell us:

condescension instead of an answer.

Tempted, as I am, to rely on the fact that, in the GE, Hillary is going to lose the majority of states she's won against Bernie in the primary (particularly assuming a divided party), suffice to say that your If/Then blather leaves something to be desired.

The statement was structurally correct. The fact that you disagree with the premise (i.e., that a poor showing against a "weak" (in your mind) candidate in a primary where so much is stacked in her favor evidences a political weakness that does not bode well for the GE) does not change that.

Now take a stab at telling us where Hillary can pick up 55 electoral votes. With Hillary behind in the polls in Ohio, California is everything.

Here's a reality check for you

Hillary won't take North Carolina, or Mississippi, or Georgia, or Missouri, or Iowa, or Arizona (are you clicking these off as you go?)

She's behind in Ohio (still clicking?)

What's 227 + 55?

Here's the bottom line, Hillary needs Bernie's people in the GE. She particularly needs them in states with a large number of electoral votes.

Obama lost California to an already defeated Clinton in 2008. He had no problem carrying it in the GE.

There is no correlation between primary results and GE results, because overall states demographics and voter inclinations vary wildly to primary demographics and inclinations.

Btw, just because you don't like admitting the political weakness that would be demonstrated by a CA loss, doesn't mean the If/Then "doesn't work."

Hillary has no leeway. Even if she carries the rest of Obama's electoral total except for Ohio, where she is behind, she loses the GE if she can't take California. She has nowhere else to look for electoral votes, a fact proven by your dodging the question.

Hillary knows it . . . why don't you?

Hillary was still in the thick of the battle. According to the Hillary camp, Bernie has been toast since Super Tuesday. Losing by 8% to a strong candidate (backed by the Democratic Establishment) does not mean one is weak. Losing to a malcontent who has no chance of winning and is trying to destroy the party (Hillary supporters' words, not mine) does.

Do you get the difference?

59. I think he has a good chance in CA.

But even with a win it is highly unlikely That he will get a large enough margin.
But hope springs eternal.

65. It won't

That is what is really sad for you guys...it won't. All Hil needs is 10% and I am sure she will get that. Obama lost California ...at the end there is no momentum except for the concession speech...hurry up on that one

71. Bernie doesn't win diverse states, last I checked.

Of course, we might be in for a surprise. I guess "we'll see." 👀

81. A political earthquake? Perhaps so knowing that pollsters don't usually count new voters

and I believe there is over a million, perhaps a million and one-half, new voters, the majority of which are in the age group Bernie attracts.

Anything can happen, but I feel good about his chances. Either way, though, the man has put in a Herculean effort and no one deny he has made a difference. He is my political hero.
