he just gave up 1597 potential delegate votes from Ohio as well as never getting any electoral votes from Ohio the state that often decides the election if he did by some miracle win the nomination. In short where it appeared to most of us Bernie and Hillary fans that he could not be nominated, we are sure of that now. At this point, he should just drop out and let voters concentrate on the issue differences among the competitive candidates. Otherwise he is just helping the DNC keep voters ignorant to help Hillary.
