Sanders statement June 4: "The election is not over on June 7th. No candidate can declare victory" [View all] imagine2015 Jun 2016 OP

This is gonna be quite an experience RobertEarl Jun 2016 #1

The election will before on June 7th, just as it went in 2008 and 2004 Tarc Jun 2016 #2

Yeah...when the other candidates suspend their campaigns Jack Bone Jun 2016 #3

Yes, all 2nd-place finishers are welcome at the convention, Bernie will be there Tarc Jun 2016 #5

A "presumptive" status only claim by Hillary's campaign supporters and "neutral" DU Adminstrators. imagine2015 Jun 2016 #7

They 'll be no presumptive anything this year Jack Bone Jun 2016 #8

This is not at all like 2008 and 2012. Haven't you been following the primaries or 2008/2012? imagine2015 Jun 2016 #6

Simmah down mr. 2015, I didn't say 2012 at all Tarc Jun 2016 #43

It's kind of hard to pretend the election is still going when the rest of the world has moved on. BzaDem Jun 2016 #4

Point being, the media IS NOT to call the race over Jack Bone Jun 2016 #10

What happens when they do, despite whatever you have said to the contrary? BzaDem Jun 2016 #12

Hillary suspended her campaign...Bernie's not Jack Bone Jun 2016 #13

Did you not see my post? They declared Obama the victor BEFORE Hillary suspended her campaign. BzaDem Jun 2016 #14

Probably talked to someone in her campaign...i dunno Jack Bone Jun 2016 #16

Or maybe... just maybe... they will call it, like in 08, as your opinion doesn't matter to them. BzaDem Jun 2016 #19

It's not my opinion, it's the DNC's! Jack Bone Jun 2016 #42

Superdelegates do not vote until July 25th. They are irrelevant until then. jillan Jun 2016 #18

Exactly, and I love your sig picture. One Black Sheep Jun 2016 #20

So his hope is for the super delegates to overrule the pledged delegate winner? oberliner Jun 2016 #24

It's the way the game is played now, he didn't write the rules. One Black Sheep Jun 2016 #28

Lol LOl. Oh my the hypocrisy of a year of this shit. seabeyond Jun 2016 #36

Including supers for determining a presumptive nominee is ALSO "the way the game is played now". Lord Magus Jun 2016 #44

Right, but he could stand on principle and say they should vote for the pledged delegate winner oberliner Jun 2016 #58

You might want to prepare to be upset on Tuesday. Maybe get your comfort items ready. nt anotherproletariat Jun 2016 #21

Hillary will not have 2383 pledged delegates. Those are the rules. Period. jillan Jun 2016 #25

She will have passed 2383 including those supers who have committed to her, which anotherproletariat Jun 2016 #31

It doesn't matter how often you repeat it. Lord Magus Jun 2016 #45

The pledged delegate totals are relevant oberliner Jun 2016 #23

He wants the super delegates to override the pledged delegate winner? oberliner Jun 2016 #22

The super delegates haven't voted. lol. They can vote for whoever they want AT THE CONVENTION. jillan Jun 2016 #26

Right, but he is encouraging them to not vote for the candidate who wins the most pledged delegates oberliner Jun 2016 #57

And I should listen to him why? RandySF Jun 2016 #27

Bernie can say whatever he wants. Just watch what happens. Renew Deal Jun 2016 #29

So the Hillary camp doesn't believe in rules? The rules were there when she signed up to run. jillan Jun 2016 #34

They believe in the rules. Bernie's camp claims to not believe in reality Renew Deal Jun 2016 #40

Yes and by those exact same rules Obama was the presumptive nominee on June 3 VIA SUPERDELEGATES. Lord Magus Jun 2016 #46

Wanna bet? Just cause Sanders is yelling at all of us does not mean we have to listen. seabeyond Jun 2016 #33

Another hillaryite that does not care about the rules of the democratic party. jillan Jun 2016 #35
