Feb 2020

How many delegates:

The Democrats will be awarding 63 delegates on Saturday. Fifty-four of those delegates are pledged to the winner of the primary.

The other nine are unpledged delegates, or superdelegates.

Of course I could be wrong but this is what I found in a quick search.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
