I'm looking for some good solid information (on the web) regarding delegate counts by state for previous primary years (1996 and earlier). Thegreenpapers.com has great stuff for 2004, 2002 (congressional stuff), and 2000, but nothing that I can find earlier than that.
Does anyone know of anything? Thanks for the help!
As far as Democratic primary strategy goes, Edwards has gotten what he needs, a 1-on-1 showdown with Kerry. Unfortunately, the super Tuesday states are lined up against him. Kerry's lead is about 300 delegates. Edwards needs, at minimum, to split evenly the delegates from Super Tuesday. If he gets further behind, it is over. If Edwards can split them, he will be able to close the gap a week later on southern Tuesday. Then it will be a race. If Kerry continues to do what he's done so far (50-55%), then he is the nominee. (Short and sweet this week.)
