Obama beats Hillary by 14% in Alabama yet Hillary gains 1 more delegate than Obama

[Herman Munster]

What a joke this system is.

1. Isn't that what happened in Nevada

2. Yes, but in reverse. All is right with the world. Balance. n/t

3. They have made it so complicated.

It makes my brain hurt and it does not seem like they really care what the people say. Plus it is going to go on forever until we know who we are going to put forth as the Dem nominee. Some of us out here don't really care which one it is. But, we would like to know as soon as possible so that we can start to fight against the Republican nominee, who will be seated much earlier.

4. Seems wrong. If you win the state you should get more delegates.

I guess this happens because delegates are awarded by district, but it still seems wonky to me.

5. They haven't dealt them all out yet.

That's just accounting for 41 out of 60 total delegates. I don't know how it will work out, though.

6. that's not all the delegates yet

7. obama filled his empty mouth back in nevada saying that hillary won the popular votes but he won the

delegates count .... well, now it's happened in reverse! life has a funny way of straightening things out. i haven't heard him fill his mouth about delegate count this time around.
