100% In from wisconsin-Bernie 56.6 Clinton 43.1

clinton won 1 county-Milwaukee

now let's compare gop'

Cruz-48.2 Trump 35.1 Kasich 14.1

Bernie's win over clinton is slightly higher than cruz over trump but you wouldn't know that from MSM.Bernie got most votes yesterday in wis-567,936 Cruz-531,129

out of pleged delegates in wis-Bernie 47 Clinton 36

It seems strange that clinton wins 1 county and yet gets 11 less delegates than Bernie.

And if you silly liberals want to claim winning more than 100% is impossible, you're just ignoring The Math™.

and so she gets delegates based on population? It seems odd to me too and I usually look at Wiki maps like this one....
