Q&A #1: Marisa's Margin

Off we go on a fabulous Ask Me Anything Day! First up, "jessiekb" asks:

Will delegates to the Democratic state convention give Marisa Defranco the 15% she needs in order to appear on the primary ballot in September? 

Yes. Just about every Democratic insider I've asked thinks so, and I get no sense that top party and Elizabeth Warren people are willing to make the kind of effort it would take to prevent it -- if they can. I could be wrong, but I'd be surprised if Defranco doesn't get the 15%. But I also don't think it ultimately makes much difference.
