3. wow, that's spooky
I just logged on to post a message with the exact same subject line!

But with a different question. I was wondering how our delegates are awarded -- winner take all, proportional, or by congressional district -- or by some other method that I don't know about.

Anybody know?

4. I think that a committee of unknown provenance made up of real estate moguls, lawyers, and a few
assorted "usual suspects" get together, have an Black Mass and then after the sacrifice come up with how the delegates are awarded!
The state party has to be the most secretive organization of which I am aware outside of Mormon temple rites or the Masonic lodge secrets! I do so wish we would reform the party organization and actually have public meetings with open elections for each district! I'm sure they do on paper. . .

5. LOL!
It was always that way.
