FiveThirtyEight pledged delegate tracker
FiveThirtyEight has updated their online pledged delegate tracker.
New totals: 1,151 - 828, Clinton. projects.fivethirtyeight.com/...
Clintons new net pledged delegate lead is, +323. Clinton currently has a net gain of +100 delegates from Super Tuesday 2, (376 - 276).
There are still 39 delegates pending to be allocated. 16 of those outstanding pledged delegates are from Florida, so realistically Clintons lead could increase.
Pledged delegates left to allocate:
-Florida - 16
-Illinois - 21
-Missouri - 0
-North Carolina - 0
-Ohio - 2

39 pledged delegates yet to allocate
The NYT Upshot has a very cool interactive delegate calculator at the link below and according to their current calculator, Sanders must win all remaining contests with roughly 62% of the vote to overcome Clintons pledged delegate advantage. If you notice, it isn't updated with the very latest delegate totals. Going forward, Sanders must win all remaining contests like Clinton won in the south.

Time for a little Cotton Eye Joe!

(1,968 posts)6. You've seen Idaho polling?
I haven't found any!
I see she's slightly favored in AZ at this point per polls posted here, and slightly favored in UT on 538.

(16,104 posts)9. I get this Bing popup on Hillary Clinton searches!
It has everything about primaries!
Idaho is forecast 65.2% for Hillary. Idaho is getting edgy, but Arizona is around 70%.
See if it pops up for you!

(1,968 posts)10. No dice, I'm afraid...
...but I'm happy to take your word for it on numbers that good!
I'd love it if she just won AZ. AZ plus either UT or ID kind of blows Sanders' claims of post-March 15th dominance, so that would be lovely too.

(4,035 posts)5. Why haven't they allocated those pledged delegates?
I thought they had counted all the votes?

(67,782 posts)7. The lead is slowly increasing as details of the votes on Tue are examined and delegates assigned.
At this point, there is NO "path to the nomination" for him.
Thanks for keeping us all updated and informed.
