Barack Obama needs 2,024.5 delegates become our nominee. With his lock on the pledged delegate majority, strong backing from superdelegates, and projected support from at least 130 more pledged and add-on delegates, it is now just a question of when that will happen.

On May 20, Barack Obama will surpass 1,627 pledged delegate, guaranteeing that he will head to Denver with a majority of the democratically selected delegates.
