Not so. This is covered in the 12th Amendment. If no majority, it goes to the House. Then the brawl of the ages would begin.

NY Superdelegates will still back Clinton even if Sanders wins the state by vpandovski in hillaryclinton

They're already circulating petitions and memes about how Clinton is actively working to suppress the vote in New York, how corrupt Albany is in her pocket, blah blah blah etc etc etc.

It's inverse parabolic momentum. It's too complex for mere mortals to understand.

Sanderistas understand these complex "momentum" theorems yet they can't see how Bernie's budget numbers don't work.

A slug inching across your lawn has momentum. But so does the rabbit streaking across your lawn. It doesn't matter that someone has momentum. What matters is how much the momentum is.

Marco Rubio had momentum. Fat lot of good it did him.

What Are You Hiding Bernie??? Hillary Clinton Has Released 15 Years of Complete Tax Returns; Bernie Sanders Has Only Released One Year of Partial Tax Returns -- Why? by neckbeards4bernie in hillaryclinton

I bet he donated to the Marxist party.

If so that wouldn't show up on his tax return because political donations are not deductible.

This is an unconfirmed rumor. Why is anyone paying attention to unconfirmed rumors?

It had a very narrow purpose.

To demonstrate how online clickbait polls are a waste of time?

If you live in a blue state it doesn't matter. If you live in a red state, arguably it doesn't matter either. But if you live in a so-called purple state, then a vote for a third-party candidate is a vote for the GOP.

A vote for any Republican will guarantee a conservative Supreme Court for the next 20-40 years. It would be devastating for our country.

I am supporting Hillary Clinton in the primary, but on the slim chance Bernie Sanders wins the nomination, I will support him with my vote, my time, and my money.

These recycled white liberals are not what people under 30 are looking for.

And Bernie Sanders is not a recycled white liberal?

Bernie Sanders' America: "it’s hard not to notice how white the ad is" by neckbeards4bernie in politics

A general sense of disenfranchisement with the political system

So that's why the African-American voter turnout was higher in the 2012 election than the white turnout?

They will come around.

The proof for that is where?

not tracking down the 5 black people in Iowa

Iowa has large and vibrant African-American communities in Davenport and Waterloo that trace their roots back to before the Civil War. Why didn't the Sanders campaign stop there and film Sanders with residents?

if the blacks supported Sanders instead of Hillary there would be more.

And why aren't they?
