163. That nearly 13 million DEMOCRATS have said "I'm with her" tells me HRC will be the nominee.

In addition there is the disturbing fact that some of those 10 million votes BS had gotten are from Republicans who would not vote for him in the GE.

Trump voters boost Sanders in West Virginia
05/10/16 09:30 PM—UPDATED 05/11/16 08:00 PM
By Alex Seitz-Wald

>>>snip<<<

Unfortunately there has been a trend of Republican voters casting their votes for Bernie Sanders.

In fact, 39 percent of Sanders voters said they would vote for Trump over Sanders in the fall. For Clinton, nine percent of her voters say they plan to come out for Trump in the general election.

West Virginia has an open primary, meaning independents can vote in the Democratic contest. With the GOP nomination wrapped up, it’s possible mischievous Trump supporters sought to damage Clinton, the likely Democratic nominee, by voting for Sanders.

There was also a competitive Democratic gubernatorial primary Tuesday – and no Republican one – so Trump voters might have turned out for that and then weighed in on the presidential ballot line while they were at it.

Either way, Sanders’ coalition in West Virginia doesn’t fit with many of the patterns we’ve come to expect of Sanders voters after more than 40 primaries and caucuses.

For instance, Sanders, the Vermont Democratic Socialist, won self-described conservative voters. He also won 62 percent of voters who said they want less liberal policies than Obama’s.

That suggests some of Sanders’ voters may have been motivated more by a desire to vote against Clinton, rather than to support Sanders’ policy ideas.
