The idea is to change the allocation of the delegates among the candidates based on the popular vote and then to elect the actual delegates through the convention process.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6719252574677567989.post-19975947382558886572008-11-16T19:18:00.000-05:002008-11-16T19:18:00.000-05:00Should they drop the delegates based on the caucus...Should they drop the delegates based on the caucus, I just hope that there is still a Convention system and the Precinct Convention continues -- the caucus is only part of the Precinct Convention -- but it also is a chance to offer resolutions that go up the convention chain.
