24. Nope, that's not my argument. |

"Some HRC supporters have voiced their concern that the prima-caucus system is unfair because of how the delegates are allocated. And that delegate allocation doesn’t take into consideration the amount of voters in each contest (primary versus caucus). "
In other words, I am arguing against the meme that "Obama shouldn't have got so many caucus delegates because the caucus voters are less than the primary voters". That's what I refuted; showing that factoring the correct proportions of the turnout for both the caucus, and the primary, Obama still wins.
What I am not arguing against in the OP is whether or not people voting twice is democratic or not.
