Here in Minnesota, Sanders has at least three super delegates: Reps.

The Vermont senator was favored going into the caucuses.
Sanders prevailed in caucus voting Saturday, and has now won 16 states to Clinton’s 18.
U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump is leading his rivals for the Republican nomination by over 20 points in the upcoming primary contests of NY and Pennsylvania, latest polls haverevealed.
“You see what’s happening to me and Bernie Sanders”, Trump said Sunday in Rochester, New York. But he says he can still win this nomination.
However, the narrow victory means the candidates split delegates with each getting seven.
Sanders, behind Clinton by hundreds of delegates and more than 2.4 million votes, is pointing to statewide wins in seven of the past eight contests. “Not only did he not do that, he only netted two delegates, if that”. “I think we stand a really good chance to do well in New York State, in Pennsylvania, and as we head into other states”. “He can win 85% and we’re fine”.
While Trump has won more states than any of his Republican rivals, it’s possible that he won’t secure the 1,237 delegates needed to win the nomination before the summer convention.
“If you look at the math, if you want to talk about math, the truth is that it is very, very, very unlikely that either candidate, either Secretary Clinton or Sen”. She criticized Republicans for making anti-immigration statements a “core of their campaign”. That means Clinton is likely to be able to convince many superdelegates to stick with her, he says. The rural, sparsely-populated state that’s home to former Vice President Dick Cheney is solidly Republican, so Democrats don’t spend time trying to win it in the general election.
Democratic voters in Wyoming have decided: Sen.
“We’re expecting a record turnout throughout the state”. The Stop Trump forces have coalesced around Mr. Cruz not because they’ve learned to love the prickly and conniving Texan, but simply because they seek to prevent Mr. Trump from winning a majority of delegates.
One group of enthusiastic Sanders partisans broke into a Bernie Sanders song to the tune of “Yankee Doodle Dandy”. “It was completely a misrepresentation and he seemed to take them back today”, Clinton said. Sanders spoke to a large crowd on the University of Wyoming campus after winning the Wisconsin primary.
The New York primary is April 19.
Even if Sanders wins in states like NY, his campaign concedes he can’t mathematically clinch the nomination before July and the victor will be determined at the party convention.
Hillary Clinton has 53% to Bernie Sanders 37%.
“I’m not going to get beaten up”. “I thought it would be fun to go to his wedding because it’s always entertaining”. “I think we have a real shot to end up with more delegates”.
“It’s not right. We’re supposed to be a democracy”, said Trump.
Asked in a CNN interview that aired Sunday whether she’s quietly preparing a strategy in the unlikely event of a contested Democratic convention, she replied, “No, I intend to have the number of delegates that are required to be nominated”.
Clinton’s comments come as Sanders launched several verbal volleys in the last week against Clinton, saying that he has doubts about what kind of president Clinton would be and suggesting that Clinton is unqualified to be president.

“I feel sorry sometimes for the young people who, you know, believe this”, Clinton told host Chuck Todd.
