77. I believe they are projecting out for the Dems National Convention
Tue Feb 2, 2016, 12:12 AM
Feb 2016

So these 1681 delegates get winnowed out at the county level and then the state level. Those 2 sets of numbers together are the total # of Iowa state delegates that go to the national convention. Technically, at any level the delegates can switch sides, but it would be very poor form to do that (they'd be skinned alive by their supporters) so the 1681 can for all practical purposes be reduced right now to the state delegate count.
