The others I think will be tight and not called till late in the night. Those numbers will be fun to watch come in. Early numbers don't count much in these states.

Because Bernie turned around a 40 pt lead in the polls elsewhere, everyone started saying 'all the polls are garbage!'

Remember, for weeks and weeks everyone was saying 'after the 15th, Bernie will do well', and then suddenly there was talk of Bernie taking 3/5 today, and now no matter how things wind up, we get more of the 'Well, Bernie's dead in the water' spin.

We've known for some time that this would be a long haul for Bernie. That hasn't changed.

There are going to be a lot of threads in the coming weeks about how Bernie should just give up. Bernie's not giving up, and neither am I.

In St. Louis County, HRC is 3K+ votes ahead, but 0/533 precincts are reported?
St. Louis areas, Kansas City, Columbia are always the very last areas to report in. They can change the whole story.

There are other counties like this in Missouri, and Ohio. Zero precincts reporting, but she's ahead?

Look at Summit County, right below Cleveland. Zero precincts reporting, but she's 3K+ ahead.

Wow. This is so far a disappointing evening. What were the exit polls showing? I'd like to think it was a conspiracy but could just be panicked voters fearful of a Trump Presidency...With Rubio out and Kasich still in, maybe Trump will go 3rd party ?
