Yep. It looks like we're going to get a contested convention all right. Ted Cruz is going to march right into Cleveland and try to deny Donald Trump his delegates so as to force multiple ballots and . . . oh, wait. Sorry. Wrong party. Wrong convention. At least if we can believe Bernie Sanders, we're getting a contested convention, but it will be the Democrat convention.
Sanders's play is pretty simple: He plans to go after Hillary's superdelegates - the elected and party officials who are unbound by primary and caucus results and can vote for any candidate they choose. On the Dem side you need 2,383 to clinch the nomination. Hillary now stands at 2,313, but only 1,769 of those are pledged as a result of the primaries and caucuses. She's got 544 superdelegates who have said they would back her, and that is what's got her on the cusp of taking the prize. She needs to take 70 of California's 192 delegates to do it on Tuesday, and it's very possible she could lose the state but still get the 70 because the state is winner-take-all on a congressional district-by-district basis.The Comment section of online publications is the new front in the ongoing Cancel Culture Battle.
