The delegate system is so broken (all rough math)

Hawaii will award 19 delegates based on around 10,000 votes

Meanwhile Michigan awarded 59 delegates based on around 1.2 million votes

3x the delegates but 120x the votes
A vote in hawaii is 40x more valuable than a vote in Michigan

This is ridiculous:mjlol:

Some are saying voter turnout in hawaii was so low Trump may have shifted the polls with the employees from his hotels.

How about Bernie getting more votes in Michigan but three less delegates? :what:

ATL to MEM
she has VA, mass(close), nevada(very close), iowa (by a nose hair...literally)

THank you for proving my point. hillary kills in the south and thats pretty much it. VA is borderline south. all i'm saying is this. she really needs to start winning HUGE in these blue states. or else the dems better start getting worried.

You might wanna look at Obama's 2008 primary map. Hillary won the big blue states while Obama racked up a small lead in the south.

He gotta spare himself the Florida embarrassment.
it'd be better for his long term prospects to bow out gracefully now. with how big of a topic money in politics is this cycle, it's not going to be a good look for him if he wastes $20-30 million on attacking trump this week.

I don't know about that breh. :patrice: Little Marco says he's going into the private sector if he loses, but he'll obviously return to politics at some point, and losing his home state in an election most people think he should drop out of is something that will follow him for a long time.

His image has already taken a hit with that Rubiobot gaffe which will be replayed every election cycle for the next 30 years. Might as well get out now to spare himself further embarrassment and keep a shred of credibility since he has virtually no chance of winning.

Yeah but the super delegates can change their mind at the end. I think last year obama started off with basically no super delegates but once it was clear he was gonna win the pledged delegates he got most of the super delegates.

Now if Bernie ends up winning pledged delegates but loses because of super delegates you might see legitimate violence at the convention.:demonic:

It's wrong that news outlets keep on reporting super delegates because it discourages people from voting Bernie if they have no idea how that process works.

Michigan
Dem Delegate count tonight:
Hillary-81, Bernie-64

:russell::snooze:
You don't see the bigger picture. You champion delegate counts. In the general election that won't save her. If she loses a state she's not getting those electoral votes. A no name senator from Vermont has closed a serious gap and it beating your candidate in places like Michigan now. Hillary is a weak candidate. She's looking like she's destined to lose the general.

Most of the states she's won are red states in the general election. She ain't getting those come November.
