I should also add an interesting quick that affects this.
Delegates are apportioned to districts proportionate with their previous presidential vote/turnout.
So you could win a large district, your opponent win a small district and your opponent gets more delegates.
This is part of the equation in Texas now. Hispanic areas, Hillary’s strength, are apportioned smaller number of delegates per vote. Urban areas, Obama’s strength, are apportioned more.
You will also note that often Hillary’s count of the delegates she has won varies with Obama’s count. And in news stories you’ll see such things as “According to CNN’s count, Obama has 455 delegates..”
It’s quite a confusing mess. Which, if you’re inclined, you could think works to Hillary’s advantage with backroom muscle.
Confusing mess, indeed. If you can’t convince them, confuse them.
Thanks. Although, I may be back for explanation, again. LOL
