There are 2 things I'd like to make clear. First of all, the uncommitted "Pro-life/Pro-family" slate won the most delegates and second, Louisiana has a primary on 2/9. If the winner gets 50% +1 of the vote or more, that candidate gets 20 National Convention delegates. If not, they go to the NC uncommitted. Anyone got a doubt still?

20 out of 67 delegates for any candidate winning 50% +1 of ballots cast in a primary? Wow. Quite a "democratic deficit" there mind Wink

You almost got it Dave... it's 20 out of 47 delegates but it's OK, up til a few weeks ago, I didn't know that LA was having a caucus either. Tongue
