I just created a spreadsheet and excluded the Southern states — the states that, for the most part (Florida), Democrats haven’t won in decades, and won’t win this year. Result: Bernie Sanders is PLUS-57 in delegate count.

Without southern states: BERNIE 514, HILLARY 457
Of course, I’m not saying those delegates don’t count (oh brother, I shouldn’t have to say that, but you know why I do, ugh). My point is, we are clearly into states that are more beneficial to Bernie.
KEEP MOVING AHEAD. The odds are long, but still there. The southern blowouts are what have been driving our counts back every time we made a gain, but those are done.
LET’S GO!
GO BERNIE!
