58. So you admit it's not 50/50.
It's DEFINITELY not that, rofl. Whoever goes into the convention with the greater number of pledged delegates has a much better chance of winning, especially if its by 150. (150 CANNOT be called a virtual tie, since it's harder to pull away in the Demo primaries due to proportional allocation)
