Biden campaign shares path-to-victory memo saying it's 'nearly impossible' for Sanders to regain delegate lead
An internal memo from the campaign of former Vice President Joe Biden said it's "nearing impossible" for Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., to regain the lead in delegates after losses in several of the Democrats' presidential primary contests.

The memo said the campaign netted 160 delegates, including up to 80 won Tuesday. Biden campaign officials said they expected his lead to expand in "some of our strongest" states -- Arizona, Florida, Illinois, Ohio and Georgia. "Of 682 delegates awarded in those states, conservative estimates have us winning more than 400 delegates and netting more than 150 delegates," the memo read.

The officials said wins for Sanders in Vermont, Colorado and Utah haven't collected him enough delegates to be able to compete. The memo's release came after Sanders, following a drubbing in Tuesday’s latest round of primaries, vowed Wednesday to press on with his presidential campaign. Click here for more.
