Re: US Primary elections: Who are you rooting for?
No other candidate has a realistic chance of capturing the delegates required to win the nomination outright. Even if Ted Cruz were to win all of the remaining delegates, it is a near impossibility for him to reach the 1,237-delegate threshold.
Though Mr. Trump is in a strong position, his path to winning enough delegates to secure the Republican nomination is not assured. Breaching the 1,237-delegate threshold requires him to maintain the same level of voter support in the contests ahead. If the dynamics of the race shift against him even slightly, he will fall short. Mr. Cruz and Gov. John Kasich of Ohio will try to earn enough delegates between them to deny Mr. Trump a majority and force the convention to undertake a second ballot. At that point, anything can happen.

Tough night ? (again) ..
Game over!
Thats what I tried explaining earlier mentioning difference between open and closed states. Most of the supporters of Bernie are either not registered or if so, they are registered as independents. So he had no chance.
Yes his rallies were great, his social media lobby was super thanks to young generation, but the true voters arent his side yet.
I’m sure his historic campaign will be remembered for long.
Re: US Primary elections: Who are you rooting for?
It is good to back the candidate that best reflects ones views. That is the purpose of the primaries. Bernie’s views:
Take big money out of politics
Against keystone pipeline.against fracking
Against TPP
Reasonably fair towards Palestinians
Healthcare for all
Lower defense spending
Improve infrastructure
Increase tax on top 1 pct
A revolution is not easy. Bernie moved Hillary to the left.
