As to super delegates
I hope this exageration makes things clear
If the United States were divided with 30 red states and 20 blue states and in the democratic primary your candidate won all 30 red states amassing a huge delegate total while your lost dreamer candidate won only twenty blue states, who as a super delegate would you offer the party nomination to delegates or not.
Along those lines, who is winning, the person with 9 wins in states that will go republican affording dems no electoral votes but three squeakers for 23 electors, or the dreamer with 9 blue state wins offering a little more than 39 electoral votes?
