After the New York primary, Bernie Sanders is estimated to need 58-61% of the remaining delegates to beat Hillary Clinton.
In the new polls released today. Clinton is leading by comfortable margins in the states to come next week and is expected to clinch the nomination before the California primary, according to the AP.
