What's at stake
Here are the Democratic delegates to be decided for each state in today's election:
Ohio 141
Texas 193
Vermont 15
Rhode Island 21.
The Texas count is the most difficult to determine. Two-thirds of its delegates are allocated based on the popular vote and one-third are determined by those who attend caucuses. In addition, as in all Democratic races, the final delegate count based on proportional representation.
There also are mixed numbers given on the delegate counts for the candidates, with each campaign and the different networks all with their own figures.
A website, www.demconwatch.blogspot.com, has come up with some of the best estimates so far and it has the delegates apportioned like this:
Clinton.. 1,035 pledged delegates; 255 super delegates.
Obama 1,187 pledged delegates; 198 super deleatges..
Needed for nomination: 2,025 delegates.
