DemDaily: The Calendar and Current Count
April 27, 2016
As we enter the final stretch of the presidential nomination process, an update on the Count and remaining Calendar contests.
In last night's 5-state primary Clinton won Maryland, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and Delaware, and Sanders took Rhode Island. Under the Dem's proportionate system Hillary won 272 delegates and Bernie 146.
Although Trump swept all five states for a gain of 109 delegates, the R's hybrid state/congressional district allocation still allowed Cruz to pick up 3 delegates and Kasich 5.
While the total count varies greatly among major national publications and sources, the AP's hard count as of 5:30pm today stands at:

Democrats | Delegates | Super Delegates | Total Delegates To-Date |

Hillary Clinton | 1,644 | 520 | 2,164 | 2,383 |
