As the results of Tuesday night's primaries are tallied, it seems Hillary Clinton will become the first woman to win the presidential nomination of a major political party.
In winning New Jersey alone, experts say Clinton clinched the needed number of delegates, and superdelegates, for the nomination.
But Bernie Sanders supporters are making it clear tonight: they're not throwing in the towel for their candidate.
Clinton is pushing for unity now that tonight's results, when including pledged superdelegate votes, give her the needed 2,383 delegates. But Sanders supporters say the fight isn't over until those superdelegates vote on July 25th.
Tonight, Clinton is telling women in speeches, and on social media, that they can be anything they want.
"If you look at some of the numbers, she's doing really, really well with women," says political consultant Jim Morrison.
But Morrison is quick to add that nothing is set in stone with voters yet.
'What is really going to be the key drivers in these things is really up in the air, in my opinion," says Morrison, who adds, as a candidate, Clinton comes with high unfavorables, and is seen by many Sanders supporters as an "establishment" figure.
Meanwhile, Morrison says many high-profile Republicans find themselves trapped between defending Donald Trump's candidacy, and condemning his comments.
"We may see a really low voter turnout in the general election," says Morrison, "because the Cruz supporters won't vote for trump, and the Bernie supporters won't vote for Clinton," he adds, calling the scenario one of many likely ones that, in the end, wouldn't surprise him any more than the current campaign.
Many Sanders supporters admit they're torn.
"If you're a Bernie supporter, you feel like the system worked against you," says one Sanders supporter regarding the 2016 campaign season.
"I've heard a lot of people say, if Bernie isn't the Democratic nominee, they'd vote for Trump," says another voter, who adds she isn't fond of any candidate on either side.
Clinton will have help from President Obama in campaigning, which could help bring up favorability rates for Clinton among 19-34 year olds--the same group that resonated well with Obama during his run for the White House.
But Morrison says that, too, could backfire.
"It could bring out a lot of Republican voters just to make sure Hillary doesn't carry [his legacy] forward," says Morrison.
Sanders supporters we spoke with say they're holding onto the thought that enough superdelegates might change their pledge to Clinton, and decide to vote for Sanders in July.
