Given the extent of Trump's victory in PA, if he is 25 delegates or so shy in Cleveland I think the unpledged delegates from PA get him to the threshold.

Those are some remarkable vote totals . I think we just have to concede that Republicans want Trump.

I know it' just the primary, but it looks like voting was very high on the Democratic side as well..

In PA, while Trump is having an easy go of it, Democratic numbers are a lot higher than the three GOP candidates combined.

I was a little worried that a Trump/Clinton battle may be tough for PA in the general, but I feel a lot better about Clinton and the Dems chance of holding on to the state.

Disagree?

I think it's been a good primary that makes her stronger in the general. Bernie has been a pretty good sport raising good issues.

McGinty pulling away. Shapiro barely up on Zappala but I wonder if most early returns were his country based on early numbers. Evans looks like he'll unseat Fattah in PA-02.

Paraphrasing Trump: "The Democrats have really treated Bernie unfairly. I suggested this early and I really mean this, I think Bernie should run as an independent."

Shrewd, but B. Sand would pull some of his support too. It would be the only way for him to win the general.

Sestak is going to barely beat the ogre mayor. Polls were very wrong.

People probably realized Sestakwasn't the guy they thought he was once they heard him speak; Fetterman was.

Trump really has broken through that 35 percent threshold as of late.

Trump and Christie had a moment when trump was asked about running mates. Jerz must be thrilled.
