Democratic Convention Watch: Welcome back
Saturday, May 31, 2008
Welcome back
WE’VE MOVED! Democratic Convention Watch is now at http://www.DemocraticConventionWatch.com
The RBC has just ruled that Florida’s pledged delegates and superdelegates will be seated at 1/2 vote each.
The RBC has ruled the Michigan’s pledged delegates be split 34.5-29.5 (69-59 at 1/2 delegate each), and superdelegates will be seated at 1/2 vote each.

Democratic Convention Watch: It’s 2117.0 to win

It’s 2117.0 to win
WE’VE MOVED! Democratic Convention Watch is now at http://www.DemocraticConventionWatch.com
With Al Wynn’s resignation tomorrow, there will be 823.5 superdelegate votes. There are 3409.5 pledged delegate votes. That’s a total of 4233 delegate votes. A majority of those votes is 2,117. If you include Al Wynn, it would be 2,117.5, and the media organizations are rounding up to 2,118.
But the number Obama will be trying to reach on Tuesday is 2,117.
Also, the status of the previously named pledged delegates in Florida is in doubt due to today’s decisions. Therefore, Green Papers and DCW are, for now, removing the 2 Edwards delegates (1 total vote) previously placed in Obama’s column and returning them to Edwards.

Democratic Convention Watch: Al Wynn finally resigning

Al Wynn finally resigning
WE’VE MOVED! Democratic Convention Watch is now at http://www.DemocraticConventionWatch.com
Just a reminder that Rep. Al Wynn is finally official resigning this weekend. While we took Wynn off of our superdelegate lists in March when he announced his resignation, lets keep an eye on whether the media numbers, and even the Obama campaign numbers, go down by one after he quits. The non FL/MI number of delegates is 4,049, and the number of delegates for a majority is 2,025. No more rounding up to 2,026 allowed. The numbers will likely change after the RBC meeting tomorrow, so lets see who gets the numbers right.
Note: The Special Election for Wynn’s seat is on June 17th, and when Donna Edwards wins the numbers will go back up by 1.

If anything interesting comes up from our friends on-site we will pass it along here.

Democratic Convention Watch: Michigan Democratic leaders ask for full seating of their delegates with 69/59 split

Michigan Democratic leaders ask for full seating of their delegates with 69/59 split
WE’VE MOVED! Democratic Convention Watch is now at http://www.DemocraticConventionWatch.com
Several Michigan Democratic leaders sent a letter to the chairs of the RBC last week requesting that the Michigan delegation be fully seated in August.
Here’s the key section:
As a result, we recommended to the Michigan Democratic Party that the pledged delegates be apportioned 69 to Senator Clinton and 59 to Senator Obama. That approach splits the difference between the 73/55 position of the Clinton campaign and the 64/64 position of the Obama campaign. Our recommendation was based on our belief that both candidates have legitimate arguments about the Michigan primary.

DNC Lawyers: Can’t fully seat FL and MI
WE’VE MOVED! Democratic Convention Watch is now at http://www.DemocraticConventionWatch.com
DNC lawyers have weighed in on the FL & MI debacle:
A Democratic Party rules committee has the authority to restore delegates from Michigan and Florida but not fully seat the two states at the convention as Hillary Rodham Clinton wants, according to a party analysis.
