We know how some have been threatened & intimidated. lately.

they may have on Tuesday if she were to clinch before then. Need to get as many votes as possible in NJ and CA.

(67,782 posts)4. That's what I've been predicting - many of the uncommitted superdelegates will flock to Clinton....
...once she's assured of the nomination. She'll be over 600 in a week or so, and Sanders will have to flip more than half of them to even get close. That isn't going to happen.

want to be known publicly then there will be about 100 unpledged delegates left.
