He’s running up huge delegate numbers in Commiefornia.
How many are needed to get the nomination ?
The Communist is a close second.
Not a good omen for the future of the Republic.

No, he demanded that after the Hillary debacle in the last election, that California apportion their delegates, so now Bernie reaps what he sowed. He won’t get the whole portion as Hillary did in 2016, he gets only a portion of the Crazies in California. His “Fair” share, as he demanded. The rest will be apportioned to all 99,999 Democrat presidential candidates who were running in California. . . or what ever number qualified to be running in California... or get their names on the open Democrat party ballot (I think it was winnowed down to 12 who finally met the rules to be on the ballot.). LOL!
That would give a good idea of what states Trump will most likely take in Nov. I'm betting Trump will take 40-45 states in Nov.
What happens to the dropout votes though?
"Delegates elected to the national convention pledged to a presidential candidate shall in all good conscience reflect the sentiments of those who elected them".
In other words, they can vote how they want, but will likely either cast their vote for their candidate who dropped out, or they will vote for whomever their candidate endorsed. These delegates will be be heavily lobbied, maybe even thrown a little quid pro quo. It's almost like they become a super delegate and get to vote first round.

Rather incomplete and misleading for Wednesday as this does not include California. I presume that once California is settled, Sanders will have a substantial lead, correct?

It is going up. I thought it was adding CA as they go.
Here’s the BURN, Bern:
SANDERS
344 - 272 + 72
WARREN
37 + 35 = 72
BUTTIGIEG
26 + 46 = 72
BLOOMBERG
17 + 55 = 72
KLOBUCHAR
7 = 65 = 72
GABBARD
1 + 71 = 72
Give those 272 votes up, Bernie
From each according to his Abundance
to each according to his need
RIGHT???
(Uncle Joe will forget to give an acceptance speech, anyway so let the old guy go)
Jeb bush spent 50 million per delegate. Bloomberg spent 26.7 million per delegate. Of course the biggest loser on loser Island is Tom Steyer who spent 156 million and got zero delegates. I spent nothing but did as good as Steyer did. I suspect Bloomberg is hoping to be the Kingmaker but we shall see.
Gabbard is hanging in there until the swimsuit competition.
