He hasn't had a realistic shot for a long time, but that doesn't mean he won't hang around.

With 99.9% of precincts reporting, I think that Clinton will narrowly win Kentucky. And all counties have been called. Here's the county map. Red counties went for Clinton, Green counties went for Sanders.

Hillary is obviously not a clear choice to Dem voters.
Not to Democrats who tend to vote Republican in November in this particular state but she certainly is to the millions and millions who have voted for her so far this cycle - 3,000,000+ more than have voted for Bernie.

Didnt you vote for the war monger that wasted 3 trillion in Iraq plus countless more trillions pi**** away on no-bid government contracts and Wall Street deregulation/bailouts? I dont think you are in a position to talk about "free stuff". You basically vote for free stuff for the wealthy campaign donors while leaving you high and dry.

Hillary crushed Obama here in 2008, so she clearly has major weaknesses. This was a closed primary as well, which was suppsed to benefit Clinton.

Tying in the delegate count in a conservative southern state in a closed primary aint bad for a "radical extremist communist" like Sanders.

So the uncommitted voters turned out be interesting after all. In the counties Bernie won, there were generally more uncommitted votes (percentage) than in the counties Hillary won. A lot of the DINOs who had no intention of voting for a Dem in November took the opportunity to vote for - no one rather than choosing either Hillary or Bernie. In WVa, a large percentage of these voters went for Sanders instead of Hillary even though they were never going to vote for Bernie in Nov. even if he were the nominee. It does make you wonder how many in WVa would have voted for uncommitted if that had been an option.

Hardly high and dry here, Mikey. Did you vote for the idiot that gave $150 billion to Iran and doubled the national debt in his tenure ? Did you vote for the idiot who has 110 million Americans on some form of welfare sucking us dry ?

I don't get those rural Clinton counties at all. Weird.
