Missouri: pledged delegates -- Hillary 15 and Obama 6
Salon is reporting 100% of the precincts counted with Barack at 49% and Hillary at 48%, but Hillary's pledged delegate count is 15 and his is 6.

Any news on this? Or updates?

1. CNN's site is saying 30 apiece. 12 delegates have yet to be calculated.
Obama-49%
Clinton-48%

5. I'm actually a Clinton Supporter who wasn't claiming a win for either.
I'm just trying to make sense of our crazazy pledged delegate system thingy-ma-bob.

8. It makes sense when you think about the amount of counties she won
I think he only won in two, so that would tell me she would have more delegates. The rules are technical and complicated and don't seem to be the same in every state.

10. Yep, it's district based, and no district can have only one delegate. It'll split evenly.
With Hillary probably getting more in certain districts.

4. Missouri has SEVENTY TWO delegates
You need to wait until things shake out before you pull out the streamers and noisemakers.
