Hillary's Math Problem ~ It doesn't look good for her

Picture from Slate's Delegate Calculator

Scott Sokol sent this timely article to me yesterday from Newsweek Magazine. Hillary's Math Problem. It was written on Tuesday before the results of the primary were known, but it answers the question I was asked last week. Can Hillary win? The answer is probably not.

The democratic primary system isn't winner take all. It divides the delegates up based off of the percentage of the vote that each candidate receives, and right now it looks like Senator Clinton cannot win the pledged delegate count.

The article links to the Slate's Delegate Calculator and it looks like things are lining up for an Obama Presidency.
