State-by-State Delegate Report ("DelState")
Description
During a presidential year, the state-by-state delegate report shows
the current breakdown of presidential preferences of delegates to the
Democratic and Republican national conventions for each state, territory
(American Samoa (AS), Guam (GU), Northern Marianas (MP), Puerto Rico (PR)
and Virgin Island (VI)), and group, for Democrats Abroad (DA), sending
a voting delegation to the Democratic and Republican National Conventions.
This report includes the current delegate total for
each candidate within each delegation and the change in the past 24 hours
for each state. For each state and U.S. territory, this report provides
the number of delegates won by a candidate at any given point as well
as the sum of changes in the number of pledged delegates each candidate
has won and any unpledged delegate endorsements gained or lost since midnight
the day before the last election.
Delegate numbers are the total number of pledged and
unpledged (super) delegates for each candidate. The numbers are based
on party and state rules, delegate interviews, public statements and analysis
of election results by the Associated Press.
