408 Pledged Delegates Remain

B) There are 408 pledged delegates left to be won in the remaining nine contests.

May 3rd: Guam (4 pledged delegates)
May 6th: North Carolina (115) and Indiana (72)
May 13th: West Virginia (28)
May 20th: Kentucky (51) and Oregon (52)
June 1st: Puerto Rico (55)
June 3rd: Montana (16) and South Dakota (15)

Senator Obama currently has 1724 total delegates and would need 301 of these remaining delegates (73.8%) in order to reach the magic number of 2025 total delegates.

Senator Clinton cannot capture the nomination by pledged delegate alone at this point, as she would still be 25 delegates shy (at 2000) even if she managed the impossible by capturing 100% (all 408) of the remaining delegates.
