Courtesy of an AP Tally we get the following result for pledged delegates accumulated in the primaries and caucuses held last Tuesday (pledged delegates to date).
Kerry: 144 (176)
Edwards: 66 (84)
Clark: 50 (50)
Dean: 7 (15)
Sharpton: 2 (2)
I do believe this is an accurate account. The Sharpton numbers seem surprising, but it does seem he won a delegate in Delaware and one in South Carolina. Earlier counts don't reflect this because they were missing some precincts in SC's 6th CD where Sharpton did strong.
So at this point Kerry has won just over half of the pledged delegates available. At this pace he would need the assistance of superdelegates to win the nomination.
