(28,876 posts)That was insane. The check was by Bernie's name for a moment, then nothing.

(24,979 posts)but now you're going to keep me up. Damn.
(That's what's on Google, apparently from the AP feed. Sanders, 48.3, "won" but Clinton with 50.5. 90% reporting. A glitch, surely? Or not?!)

(3,655 posts)Clinton wins metro areas, Bernie rural. Most of the unreported look rural.

(53,987 posts)While I was looking at it, they deleted the green "called for" box and little green check. Both before and after the totals were Clinton-51 to Sanders-48.
I think it was an error

(9,745 posts)here's a screenshot of when Bernie won Mass....it was an exciting 2 minutes LOL
Still very strange? And then changing it to "Clinton ahead by 2 points" and now to her winning.
Didn't Bernie win the Mass exit Polls? I don't get it.

(36,437 posts)Clinton's been ahead, pretty much since they started counting Boston Metro. A couple of big precinct clusters were not being reported (Worcester with 23,000 votes, Amherst, 66-33 to Bernie, Cambridge with 28,000 votes). Once those came in, it was all over. Clinton had a lead fluctuating between 24,000 and 29,000 for the last several hours. You can see some convo on this between me and Cobalt_Violet (an awesome Bernie supporter) in this thread:

(28,876 posts)...Provisional ballots. With over 1 million Dems voting, I wonder how many are out there?

(2,408 posts)The wrong call by the NYT said "according to AP"
When they fixed it, those words were gone.
My computer decided to do windows updates right NOW..
BUT I someone posted a breakdown by congressional district that showed Bernie 46, Hillary 45.
This is due to a big Bernie win in CD2 meaning +2 delegates
Hillary won in four DISTRICTS for +1 each, Bernie in three districts for +1 each.
All the others even split.
So Bernie ends up +1.
Can anyone confirm?

(28,876 posts)I saw him with 3 less in MA.
