He's only ~200 delegates behind Hillary... California alone is worth 475... say hello to President Bernie!

He is 263 delegates behind Hitlery (701, if the super-delegates are also counted). Also, the California democratic primary is semi-closed, and that means that a lot of Bernie supporters will not be allowed to vote. The Clinton machinery is very strong in that state, and I will be really surprised if Bernie manages to outperform Clinton there.  

No, he's not... you are wrong

Google's count is not official... Google shows Bernie winning Washington 72.7% to 27.1%!  Worth 101 delegates, Bernie has 25, Hillary has 9.. that leaves 67 delegates uncounted... 50+ of them will go to Bernie and 17- to Hillary... that's another 33+ for Bernie, making the actual total less than 230 behind...

Then there is Nevada... which just announced they voted for Bernie... Google shows Nevada voting in favor of Hillary by 5.3% margin... except in reality, they just changed their mind...  Google shows 20 Hillary, 15 delegates for Bernie, but that is about to flip... giving Bernie another +10 delegates!

That's less than 220 now... not counting the election fraud in Arizona and Massachusetts and probably other states...


PS. You are also wrong about California... it is semi-closed like you say, but this year, the democratic party IS allowing independents to vote in the democratic primary:
