6 states North Dakota,California,Montana,New Jersey,New Mexico and South Dakota - vote on Tuesday June 07,2016 in the 2016 presidential primaries, but as far as The Associated Press is concerned the contest may be over for the Democrats.
The wire service on Monday evening June 06,2016 designated Hillary Clinton as Democrats' presumptive nominee, meaning enough delegates have declared their support for her to render Tuesday's votes significantly less consequential, if not moot.
Challenger Bernie Sanders contends that super delegates' support is meaningless until Democrats' nominating convention, making the call irrelevant
What’s at stake?

• New Jersey – 51

• California – 475
After Tuesday June 07,2016, the only remaining Democratic primary is June 14 in Washington, D.C

Hillary Clinton's win in New Jersey came a day after she secured the 2,383 delegates she needed to become first female presumptive nominee of a major political party, according to an Associated Press tally.
