the primary

Conspiracy theory may be about to become conspiracy fact once again as the oddly-timed proclamation by the Associated Press last night that Hillary had secured enough delegates to win the Democratic Party nomination may have been planned days in advance...

As we detailed earlier, on a day with no voting, based on AP's surveys of the un-named anonymous super-delegates, they stated that Hillary had the 2383 delegates to secure the nomination... as Mike Krieger exclaimed,

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

With the latest polls showing Bernie Sanders narrowing the gap on Hillary Clinton’s lead to just two points, a former adviser to Bill Clinton predicts a win for the Vermont senator in the California primary next week could end the race for Hillary. He also predicts that Vice President Joe Biden could throw his hat in the ring by entering the presidential race and challenging Sanders to the White House.

After weeks of withholding a formal endorsement of his party's presumptive nominee, Speaker Paul Ryan on Thursday said he will vote for Donald Trump for president. "I'll be voting for @realDonaldTrump this fall. I'm confident he will help turn the House GOP's agenda into laws," Ryan's campaign account tweeted, linking to an article in The Gazette, his hometown newspaper in Wisconsin.
