Here is what I observed:
While watching MSNBC, Chris Hayes announced that NBC and AP had declared Hillary Clinton the presumptive nominee.
The reason for the call was that 10 super delegates were identified by AP as having changed their minds from undecided to Hillary.
Therefore, it's no surprise when it behaves like one.
Bernie said there was corruption. Well, we found it.
The only surprise here is that they were this ham-handed and blatant, seriously jumping the gun when there was no need to, using a method which could create a lot more blowback than other, subtler methods.
We believe that it is unnecessary to prolong the 2016 campaign further, poll after poll indicates that Hillary Clinton would win the general election, therefore:
To avoid further expense and voter angst over the tone being used, we declare Hillary Clinton to be the 45th President of these United States.

Sanders Rallies In San Francisco
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) held one of the last rallies of his California primary campaign in the Bay Area on Monday, where he defied the Associated Press projection of Hillary Clinton as the Democratic nominee regardless of Tuesday’s result.
Let's go voters, let's go! *clap clap* Let's go voters, let's go! *clap clap*
(Because this past weekend a Monster ate the site, detroitmechworks was unable to post on Sunday his usual Openly Eccentric open thread. This is neither Right, nor Fair. Thus, this here is a combo of the customary Open Tummler of a Tuesday, and also the Openly Eccentric offering that detroitmechworks would have published Sunday. If only there had not been the Monster.)
There's a report and video up on Kossaks for Sanders about a group called Trust the Vote. They say they've been working with the FBI and have evidence of fraud, going back to 2012. Their attorney says on the video that they have the evidence, they can prove it, and that "Bernie has won."
He says they are also suing the media as "accomplices after the fact. They are covering up evidence of criminal activity. It's a crime."

The GOP won the down-ballot race the last time there was a Census — in 2010 — which allowed them to gerrymander the House districts heavily in their favor, and the Democrats have been unable to win control since.
