For some reason AP is now saying that it's 98% and 1813 votes.

No matter which way this one breaks, each of them get 25 delegates.

At 64% counted, I wonder whether most of that is from the population centers or the rural areas. The big 3 cities and their metro areas are predominantly D. The whole rest of the state, not so much.

Won't matter once Sgt Schultz and the DNC "disenfranchise" all those voters with their SuperDelegates. You know the ones that have the equivalent of about 10,000 "normal" Dem lacky voters.. Hilliary could lose 51 to 38% (like W.Va.) and come out even with delegates.

They're not trusting their voters to coronate anybody..

BTW -- has anyone noticed the VERY large fraction of the MISSING votes in these primaries?? I was screaming at the TV because NONE of the news org would comment on the missing 13% of the vote in W. Virginny.. Those folks pulled the Neither Clown lever. And about 8% tonight in Kentucky. (actually O'Malley got a couple percent and there was also a writein I've never heard of) It's been 8 to 15% in a lot of Dem primaries that have "none of the above"..

Looks good for folks working for ballot access and more choice.. Imagine that. Having the principles and the dedication to pull yourself out of lunch hour just to go SLAP your party for the nasty choices.. Not a wasted vote at all...

Your welcome wagon just got unhitched on the way.

Interesting the way in virtually every one of these close elections Bernies narrow lead evaporates right at the end and Hillary pulls it out.

That's the way it is in Kansas where a 20 point lead vanishes into a 10 point loss overnight.
