As it is, Bernie won't be getting the huge boost in delegates he'd planned on. Biden is winning the votes cast nationally today by a healthy margin.

Bernie is leading Texas by 3% with 29% of the vote in. Can Biden overcome this and win Texas?

Who you think wins between the two of them and by what margin? I assume Biden but by how much?

I hope not. Most of my guns are semi-auto. And I wouldn't enjoy duck hunting nearly as much with a flintlock.

Bernie Sanders sitting at 51% of the vote in VERMONT.

Yikes!

Times change and we have a way of amending the Constitution because the Founding Fathers knew that it needed to be malleable.

Bernie made a injunction in California to keep the polls open until 1 A.M. He is really desperate

I have no idea, but Joe has seized the overall momentum, clearly.

C'mon, man. Ducks are good people.

It's hard to imagine any change so drastic in our lifetime, but once upon a time, there was the 18th Amendment that said we couldn't drink alcohol, then the 21st Amendment said we could. Things can change.

California has a lot of mail-in ballots and as long as it's mailed in by today it counts, so it's gonna take a week or so to get final results there, cue the conspiracy theories if it gets closer

Personally I think slavery is bad

Since people were/are still in line waiting for hours. Their votes shouldnt matter/count since the poll locations cant run efficiently or handle the volume?

Not being able to run something efficiently?

That sounds like California

He won California regardless, why does it matter
