The other issue is Michigan and Florida. If the contest continues to be as close as it is, those delegates could be enough to determine the winner. Hillary, who "won" the states, has indicated she's willing to take action to see that the delegates from these two states are seated and that they have their voting rights reinstated. (She ran uncontested in the two states, as the Democratic Party is punishing the states for early primaries by refusing to seat their delegates. The Party had asked the candidates to remove their names from the Michigan ballot; all but Clinton complied. The Party forbade any candidates from campaigning in Florida, so Clinton easily carried the state.)
