Should the Super delegates switch to Sanders if Sanders wins more delegates than Hillary?

  • Yes, he should get them, but it is up to them

    Votes: 4 80.0%
  • Yes, he should get them and the party should change the rules

    Votes: 0 0.0%
  • No, but if they want to they should

    Votes: 0 0.0%
  • No, they should keep their pledges to support Hillary

    Votes: 1 20.0%
  • I dunno; I guess I'll take a Coke

    Votes: 0 0.0%

  • Total voters
    5

Serious question; So here is a hypothetical question.

Sanders has been winning most of the predominately white northern states, with a few exceptions. Hillary has been winning mostly due to black turnout, and now that her Southern states have all voted, she faces a dry period ahead. She is ahead in New York, but Sanders has won 7 of the last 8 primaries, and is definitely building momentum.

So if Sanders wins 2,200 delegates and Hillary wins only 1800 total delegates (not counting her Super delegates), is there any chance that the Super delegates will switch to Sanders? Should they?

Hillary had them sign pledges. She worries about liars?

Wonder why she is so distrustful?
 
There's no chance of Sanders getting more delegates than Clinton so it's a moot point. Pretending it could happen, there's no way super delegates break for Sanders. Clinton is the party choice.

I am seeing a bunch of unwarranted, unsupported assertions...no evidence, nor reasoning.

Hillary just has the whole thing fixed for her to win, is that what you are saying?

She has to face a mirror once in a while.

It was expected that Sanders would win Wisconsin. As you know delegates are split all the though out the Democrat primary proportionally. So even though he won the state, he may come out with just a handful of delegates. IOW it's not going to put a dent into her lead.

The problem is he is well behind Hillary Clinton in the popular vote by more than 2 million votes. Yes, he has been winning the smaller caucus states. He's hanging out at another college campus in Wyoming tonight--to get them to show up at a 3 hour meeting this Saturday to cast a vote for him. He'll probably win Wyoming. He's done well in some of these open primary states, because Independents are allowed to vote in them, and frankly there's a lot of Operation Bernie voting going on by Republicans who are voting for him, in hopes he will be the nominee, because they know they could wipe him out in the General election.

Right now the BERNIE SANDERS challenge is--to win 3 out of 4 delegates in "all" of the upcoming states, meaning he has to win BIG, not just by a few points here and there. But we're headed into some large "closed" primary states, and in closed primary states, he has been getting clobbered.

Hillary Clinton is leading in New York by 32 points, she is well ahead of him in Pennsylvania, Connecticut and several others, and Sanders would never get close to her in California another, Presidential "closed" primary.. When she wins these closed primaries, she wins them big. That is why she is so far ahead. She also has a 2+ million popular vote lead over Sanders to-date.

So in answer to your question would Democrat Super Delegates move over to someone who just changed his party status to run on this ticket. Absolutely not. They know they would be throwing this election to the Republican nominee, and they aren't going to budge for Bernie Sanders. I believe there's 580 Super Delegates that are going to stay with Hillary Clinton.

Right now it is mathematically impossible for Bernie Sanders to close this gap, or to get the Democrat Super Delegates to dump Hillary Clinton and support him. They would never do that. So basically a Bernie Sanders rally is just a side show at this point in time.
It’s Really Hard To Get Bernie Sanders 988 More Delegates
Bernie Sanders’s path to the nomination is getting very narrow

If Sanders wins New York, how can Hillary continnue to run with a serious intent to win?

Seems the Super Delegates would have to swing over to Sanders to avoid taking the nomination from the man with the most WON delegates.

Besides, what if Hillary is indicted and facing jail time? That might push the primary elections to Sanders

Sanders is not building momentum. Sanders was projected to win the states he won (put aside Michigan). Hillary has been winning the states she has been projected to win. The math does not favor Sanders in any way. The reality is that Sanders is no Democrat, and no Super delegates will be switching over to him in the way they did with Obama in 2008.

Yeah, winning is NOT momentum huh? That slut "Hillary" has been cheating since BEFORE this started. Sanders EARNED his victories NOT that aging pro islamic slut.

Classy. I have to wonder how you were raised and in what kind of a community.

Look up the definition of 'momentum' along with an explanation of HOW that fits in with Bernie's wins and numbers

I bet you cannot.

Mathmatically, for there to be any chance, Bernie has to win NY and also Penn and Ca very very handily, not to mention Maryland and NJ. If that happens, then yeah, I'd expect the superdelegates to switch.

Yup. Just like in 2008.
