Special Notes
  • Total Delegates* - This number includes pledged delegates and superdelegates
  • Superdelegates in the Democratic Party are typically members of the Democratic National Committee, elected officials like senators or governors, or party leaders. They do not have to indicate a candidate preference and do not have to compete for their position. If a superdelegate dies or is unable to participate at the convention, alternates do not replace that delegate, which would reduce the total delegates number and the number needed to clinch the nomination.
  • Delegates Needed to Win: This refers to the total number of delegate votes needed by a candidate to win the party's nomination.
