Geez, still 37% out there, and as I read it, ballots outstanding until past 2am left coast time.

16 stiks can erode quick, if the votes still out there are heavy for Obama . . .

Still not the overall win HRC needed, methinks. Ohio alone can’t win it for her, nor should it keep her in the race, if she can’t sweep Texas . . . we’ll see what the DNC has to say in the morning (or what they won’t say but will ‘nudge’).
