primaries

Although the AP called the Democratic race for Hillary last night (stunningly on a day when nobody voted), and Trump secured the GOP nomination long ago, the show must go on so that those in the remaining states will have their opportunity to cast a vote.

Of course, Bernie Sanders will look for the upset in California this evening, and is hoping to convince enough superdelegates to support him at the convention in Philadelphia - Something the AP thought was out of the cards.

I bet this poll had a lot to do with the decision to call democratic race for Hillary. They're scared. #VoteBernie pic.twitter.com/lSFP7ZG1T8

Expect many confused pundits, and Bernie Sanders fans, to mull for hours why the AP released its critical announcement that Hillary had won the delegate race just hours before the important CA primary. For now, however, here is the response from a confused, unhappy, and perhaps angry, Bernie Sanders, released moments ago by his spokesman, Michael Briggs.

What was supposed to be an all-important California primary tomorrow just became moot moments ago, when in a surprising announcement, AP just called the race for Hillary who according to the newswire's calculations has earned enough delegates to become the presumptive Democratic nominee, making her the first woman ever to win a major party nomination.
