Related: About this forumWikipedia is discussing removing Nevada from the "win" column for Hillary...
The consolation for Hillary supporters is that they probably won't color in Nevada for Bernie until after the state convention on May14-15.

Rules are rules, right?
Two can play this game.

It's a fucked up system. If, as Hillary has, Bernie spends a large chunk of his donations bribing err supporting the downticket democrats who also happen to be superdelegates, I guess that's playing the game as it was meant to be played, right?

(11,175 posts)Of course, I can't be sure, because you use a pseudonym. As someone who uses his real name on both DU and Wikipedia, I find it amusing that someone with the screen name "Tarc" now expresses such hostility to pseudonyms.
The Wikipedian who edited as "Tarc" made more than 24,000 edits over a period of more than ten years, punctuated by a few short-term blocks, before being indefinitely banned. If you now assert that what happens on Wikipedia is meaningless, it certainly has the air of sour grapes.

● These County Conventions choose the county's delegates to the Nevada State Democratic Convention. While a non-binding Presidential Preference Poll is conducted during the Conventions, delegates at the County level are not bound to their declared Presidential preference. The number of national convention can be estimated base on voting in today's convention. No national convention delegates are selected until the state Convention on 14 May.
Saturday 14 May - Sunday 15 May 2016: The Nevada State Democratic Convention convenes to choose 35 of Nevada's 43 delegates to the Democratic National Convention. A binding Presidential Preference vote will occur by 10AM PDT on 14 May. A mandatory 15 percent threshold is required in order for a presidential contender to be allocated National Convention delegates at either the congressional district or statewide level. Presidential candidates have the right to approve their pledged delegates.
● 23 district delegates are to be allocated proportionally to presidential contenders based on the support among the delegates to the State Convention from the State's congressional districts.
● In addition, 12 delegates are to be allocated to presidential contenders based on the support among the delegates to the State Convention as a whole.
