Did you mean for this to be on the News Forum? You can ask the Admin Moderator to transfer it for you.

(It’s on the Religion forum right now.)

Officially he has three. That is less than one-tenth of the number Huckabee has. Maybe if he keeps on going negative and turning voters off, he can make up some ground.

Hunter has more delegates than Rudy or Ron Paul. Yet, they are in the debates. That should trouble everyone.

McCain has only seven delegates. When will he drop out?

None of them has more than 31. I heard they're all dropping out.

Why is this thread in the Religion forum? Ask the mod to move it.

It does. Media bias against Duncan Hunter has been widely noted.

CNN gives a different picture:

Such big numbers, hard to keep them straight. Just can’t believe Fox hasn’t corrected yet. Where did the AP get their numbers??

The AP gave the 3 more Fred has to Huckabee - to put him ahead of Romney (I guess...)

CNN's tally here:
30 Mitt
21 Huck
10 McCain
06 Fred
02 Paul
01 Rudy
01 Hunter

This fits what I knew better than the Fox numbers. The real Iowa breakdown won't be known until their state convention, but the estimates CNN used are the ones most cited. They thus credit Paul with 2 out of Iowa and Hunter with 1 out of Wyoming. They also assign a few "unpledged RNC delegates," which I don't claim to understand, from a few states: 3 for Huck from AK, 1 for Rudy from ME, and a total of 6 for Mitt (1 IL, 2 IN, 1 ME, 2 MN). To those claiming Hunter is ahead of Rudy and Paul I'm curious of on what you are basing that. WY did pick some alternate delegates, hoping the convention will restore the state's full count. Is that your source? If so it is speculative that the convention will be enough pro-Mitt to pad his total as his count would be increased the most by seating all of WY.

That’s more like it.

AP left out Iowa, because of the idiosyncrasies of their process (not final until the state convention).
