He’s millions of votes and many many delegates down compared to HRC. I think the only realistic way he gets the Democratic nomination is if HRC abruptly becomes obviously unelectable (e.g., if the business with her email server starts looking like getting her into actual legal trouble, or someone discovers clear evidence of outright bribery from her Wall Street friends), in which case the “superdelegates” might all switch to Sanders. I don’t see any such scenario that actually looks more than a few percent likely.
(I make no claim to be an expert; I offer this only as a fairly typical LWer’s take on the matter.)
Thanks G, I feel more confident I understand. Can’t wait to see the debates; I’m open to the possibility my judgement on the matter might be wrong about one or both.
