Corporate media? That is what you meant. lol

Even if you dislike Bernie sanders with a passion, accept that fact that He won the state fair and square. Hey, why are you worrying about it so much? Hillary is going to eat him alive.

It appears that Nevada doesn't apportion their delegates until the State Convention on May 14th. Today was the "Clark County" convention. Nevada has a weird procedure. All the confusion of today should be sorted out by the time the State Convention rolls around. If anybody wants to read through it all, you can find it here:

Nevada Delegate Selection Plan

For those who don't, a commenter by the screen name "butcherchop" summarizes it the Las Vegas Sun article linked below:

Quote:
Its a 3 step process.

Step #1: Both Bernie and Hillary won delegates in February. Hillary won more delegates. <-- Nevada caucuses

Step #2 (Today): Both appointed delegates from Hillary and Bernie from February showed up today. More BERNIE delegates showed up, outnumbering Hillary chosen delegates.

Step #3: There is one more step on May 14th.

It will depend who of the chosen today show up. If more Bernie delegates show up in May, Bernie wins.

If more Hillary chosen delegates from today show up on May 14, Hillary wins.

Lol. Have you ever seen the Sanders supporters? Every. Single. Time he loses, they claim Hillary stole it.

Turnabout is fair play.

They have been neither gracious in winning nor gracious in losing.

But sanders did not steal Nevada. He won it. No candidates can real "steal" a whole state. you should know it. if his supporters believe Hillary stole it, then shame on them. Obviously, we have a poster who claims sanders stole it. lol So cannot really say it is only Sander's supporters are delusional.

The whole Clinton vs Sanders race at this point reminds me of Grant vs Lee. Grant lost more men than Lee, but in the match up Grant had to lose more men at a far greater number than Lee could cause.

I wouldn't assume that H.C. will be the nominee.

There aren't any more caucuses left to be had, so unless Sanders can average, average, 60% victories from here on out... game, set, and match.
