1. What's that sound?

Do I hear the tinkling of broken glass?

[yallerdawg]

2. It is done!

[flor-de-jasmim]

5. the AP is not doing Clinton any favors with this, I don't find this particularly responsible nt

[bunnies]

11. Agreed.

The appearance of the supers deciding the election will make unity that much more difficult. Bad move.

6. ALRIGHT! Let's get this thing going!

I'm proud of Sec. Clinton and her campaign, and as the father of daughters I am thrilled.

I'm with her.

10. And She WILL be the next President of the United States!

[MineralMan]

12. A day early, due to new super delegate statements.

Tomorrow night, the numbers will be much, much higher. It's over for Bernie, and he knows it, too.

13. I don't buy it....supers would coordinate with campaign...

Doesn't serve Hillary well with this

[stopbush]

19. The news yesterday was that 40 more supers wanted to declare for Hillary

and that Team Hillary had asked them to hold off until Wednesday. Obviously, they do not want to depress voter turnout in CA.

[DCBob]

14. This is great news.. but I kind of wish they would have waited until tomorrow evening.

but cheers anyway...

[workinclasszero]

15. BOOM!

WOOHOO!!!!!!!

[sadoldgirl]

16. the only part of this seen as truth is: presumptive.

[MohRokTah]

17. WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mcar]

18. Woo

and Hoo!

[TheFarseer]

20. Please tell me how that makes any sense

No state has voted in weeks. A bunch of states are voting tomorrow. Why not wait another 24 hours? It's because the establishment media is worried she will have a weak showing tomorrow. All I'm saying is we waited all this time. What's another 24 hours? Let those people vote and don't tell them they don't count.

21. I would consider this bad for Hillary if her voters stay home now

And why her campaign held the SDs back over the weekend....really not good

[stopbush]

22. Team Hillary certainly didn't want this to happen today.

She has a YUGE celebration planned for tomorrow in Brooklyn. She wants NJ and CA voters to vote. She would prefer to be put over the top by hundreds of pledged delegates.

I think this is all about news organizations wanting to get a story out first. AP is doing what Faux did when they declared Bush president ahead of all the votes being counted.
