Related: About this forumHELP! This article makes no sense to me, can some explain? Please.
"In Washington state, Sanders handily won the caucus on March 26, when the Vermont senator won 25 of the 34 delegates awarded that day. An additional 67 district-level delegates could not be divided up until the state party released vote data broken down by congressional district.
District-level data provided Saturday to The Associated Press show that Sanders will pick up 49 of those delegates, while Clinton will receive 18."

I didn't think any pledged delegates would be elected until the Congressional Dist Caucuses scheduled for May 21.

the article that I believe is totally bogus. I was hoping someone here could explain if I have it wrong or the article is full of crap. But you don't seem to be the person that knows.

(55,981 posts)8. I think it's a tactic to try to draw posters into a fight.
I don't know why I haven't put them on the big I list. I have 46. Been putting 3 or 4 a day of what I call zombies. Can't seem to kill them (figuratively, obviously) they keep coming back with new names. It must be a real challenge generating new names.

Apparently theres a 3 step process in the dem caucauses. Delegates are not bound yet, Its what allowed Bernie to steal Nevada's pledged delegates. Thats why the caucaus system is a mess.
