AM Alert: Bernie Sanders opens first California campaign office

[silvershadow]

Will California feel the Bern on Election Day? With less than two months to go until the state’s June primary, Bernie Sanders is aiming to cut Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton’s shrinking lead in the Golden State.

Sanders has already hit the airwaves in major markets, and an army of nurses is planning to stump on his behalf starting next month. Now his campaign will open its first official California office today in Los Angeles, ahead of what increasingly appears could be a fierce, down-to-the-wire battle for the country’s most delegate-rich state.

Of course, it may not ultimately matter if Clinton has clinched the nomination by then. But she’s not going to want an embarrassing, albeit symbolic, loss at the final stop on the primary calendar. Clinton has also been making the rounds of California lately, including raising big money with movie stars last week, though she has yet to open her own campaign office here.

2. What, it this a 'sudden death' 'game?'

3. If things go according to my personal projections....

... that include Sanders winning two of the five primaries next week and cutting deep into HRC's leads in PA, MD, and CT; winning every May and June contest (all by at least 10% and some by 80/20 margins); then, he will need a 66/34 victory in California to beat HRC by 3 delegates.

Piece of cake!

6. Evidently you don't understand the entire process leading to convention and the process

at convention. There are no real numbers yet. At all.

8. This is just a big illusion?

All the campaigning, voting, debates, and lawsuits are a charade?

[silvershadow]

10. Pretty much. As we have been saying. We will use every inch to claim victory so we can

change it. Something Hillary won't do.
