For those wondering why Bernie argued in 2016 for superdelegates in their states to honor the winner of that state, a thread of how SDs marginalized his wins:

New Hampshire:
BS 60.1%, HRC 37.7%
Delegates:
BS: 16, HRC: 15 (5 more SD) Sanders won both of these states, but Hillary got more total delegates because of superdelegates:

Michigan:
BS 49.8%, HRC 48.3%
Delegates:
BS: 67, HRC: 76 (13 more SD)

Indiana:
BS 52.5%, HRC 47.5%
Delegates:
BS: 44, HRC: 46 (7 more SD)
