Does Anyone Know How They Are Going To...
call Texas since it is a Primary and a Caucus?

I'm asking out of curiosity.

If they split it, will they call a winner for the primary and then another winner for a caucus?

Or will they call the state dependent upon who won the most delegates period?

1. Hillary's people are raising a stink in case Obama wins
they do not want to see a victory for Obama mentioned on the news this Tuesday to add to his 11 in a row. They want to muddle this up so that it is dragged out or forgotten.

It may take a day or two to sort everything out. She might win the primary side of it and he might win the caucus side of it. It will be fun (aka scary) to watch, Tuesday.

2. That's what I'm asking. Who wins the state if one wins the primary and one wins the caucus?

5. I think that they will mention the split and award delegates accordingly
I expect them to say that "X has won the primary, and "X" has won the caucus, giving "X" delegates to ____........

I hope that it is not too big of a mess, but I think I'll be up LATE Tuesday
