TheVoiceOfReason is one of the President's most intelligent and hardest working supporters. Four years ago he and Mrs. VOR took their vacation time and went to NC (?) to go door to door for the President.
This is one of the greatest threads in DU history. He found that their had been a small error in the math in Mississippi and it resulted in getting one more delegate for the President. No one else caught it.

Another Pledged Delegate For Obama

Mississippi has recalculated -- Obama's margin of victory is above the 62.5% threshold, and so he adds a delegate and Clinton gets one taken away. That means that Obama's pledged delegate lead is now at 169.
The Obama campaign responded with a phone call of thanks to TVOR.
Welcome back.

Ha!
It's good to be back.
