How many primaries did Humphrey win?

[1Old Pro]

On April 27 Vice President Hubert Humphrey entered into the race but did not compete in any primaries; instead he inherited the delegates previously pledged to Johnson and then collected delegates in caucus states, especially in caucuses controlled by local Democratic bosses.

How many primaries did Humphrey win?

I meant to say primaries and caucuses. In 1968 there were relatively few primaries. In 1968 Humphrey used Favorite Son proxy candidates in several states, so while he wasn't in the primary under his own name, the Favorite Son candidate won the delegates (e.g. Ohio). The voters knew what they were getting. Humphrey was also doing fine in the polling as well.
