AP declares Clinton only needs 60 more delegates

to secure the nomination.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Hillary Clinton scored a sweeping win in the U.S. Virgin Islands on Saturday, picking up all seven pledged delegates at stake as she inched tantalizingly close to the Democratic nomination.

She is now just 60 delegates short of the 2,383 needed to advance to the November general election."
