It looks like she'll win handily in PA, NY, and MD. CA polls indicate she has a fairly narrow lead as well, but even if Sanders manages to eek out a win there it won't matter.
She was 30 points ahead in Illinois a week before the primary and it ended a virtual tie.

In August, it was HE WILL NEVER WIN ANY STATE except Vermont! Then it was he can never win a state outside the northeast! Then it was he can never win a state by large margins! Then it was he can never win a big state! The list goes on and on and on. You keep de-legitimizing his 12 victories as much as you want, just recently by 60 points over your Hillary. Give credit where credit is due please.

Alaska and Washington are solid entries in Bernie's win column, but do their demographics reflect US demographics as a whole?
I'm not sure they point to his being able to rack up electoral votes in a general election.

But the Deep South does? Does winning Conservative strongholds in a primary make you competitive in a general election?
