So will Al and DK's 24 delegates make a difference?
And if not...how many delegates does it take to have influence?

1. I'm hoping they get more
especially DK given where his job is.

2. How many does DK have now?
Last I read he had 8--I don't know if it has been updated. Dean still has 180 or so delegates if they can all band together they could have some influence.

4. I expect DK will make some real gains next week
in Ohio, Minnesota, Massachusetts, and possibly Vermont.

I don't think he'll get one delegate...As a matter of fact I think it's over for the both of them...

6. you honestly don't think DK will win any delegates at all on Super Tue?
Edited on Fri Feb-27-04 11:15 AM by WI_DEM
They are based on congressional districts and I can gurantee you that he will get some out of Ohio and Massachusetts based on attaining at least 15% and I believe he will do quite well in Minnesota. I expect DK will get more than 15% in many California CD including areas around San Francisco.

p.s.
Sharpton will gain some in Georgia, NY, Ca, and Ohio.

9. Correct me if I'm wrong, cause I could be
Edited on Fri Feb-27-04 11:35 AM by trumad
He needs 15 percent for the whole state, correct?

If I am wrong and he gets delegates from Cleveland, then OK... But I say that's it...BTW: Mark this thread and revisit it next Wednesday... We'll talk then.
