That number is infinitely "reachable" by either candidate, and would require no "finagling"..

It allows the will-of-the-people to prevail, with NO interference on either side, from "super (connected) delegates..

The number ends in an odd number, so there is little likelihood that there would be a tie..but if there were a tie after ALL primaries/caucuses were OVER, a secret ballot from all declared delegates would be all that was necessary, since some of the delegates would be from people who were there for people who may have dropped out before the convention..

It's all so 5th grade-simple..and transparent

3253
-366 Mich 156 Fla 210
2887 divided by 2 + 1 = 1444

Delegates* - This number includes pledged delegates
• There are currently 3,253 pledged delegates


.................

If the party wants to reward its "special friends", let them give out VIP tickets to a big ole buffet and let them all sit up front at the convention.....and hey... free valet parking :)
