61 delegates away from nomination [View all]

Last edited Sun Jun 5, 2016, 12:42 PM - Edit history (1)

With today's six delegates from the US Virgin Islands, Clinton only needs 61 delegates more to pass the threshold for nomination.

There are 67 delegates as stake tomorrow in Puerto Rico.

On Tuesday, June 7, Hillary Clinton will become the Democratic nominee when NJ reports its results.

Correction: 60 delegates away. She swept the Virgin Islands!
