122. For the record, for those who don't follow my link
the "will of the people" is a powerful moral force when it is both clear and measured by agreed upon standards. It can be argued that the will of the People in Texas and Nevada was to support Clinton but the delegates weren't divided that way. The popular vote is often an unofficial way of seeking to understand "the will of the people", though as Al Gore knows, it had no legal standing.
