18:01Now PlayingChris Matthews recently suggested that as soon as New Jersey primary voting is over, if Hillary Clinton wins, MSNBC and the rest of the networks will declare her the Democratic nominee before polls close in California.

"The media has had a history of misreporting superdelegate totals throughout this primary race. Even after public statements from Democratic National Committee Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz that the superdelegate totals should not be included in articles and press releases, numerous articles still included misleading information for months, without separating pledged and unpledged delegates in their totals.
Even today, MSNBC continues to report delegate totals that include super delegates.
Importantly, research has proven that polls and forecasts can actually influence voters’ choices through the “bandwagon effect,” which suggests people will back the choice or candidate they think is mostly likely to win.”*
