I voted for Huckabee. Then I voted for 8 Huckabee delegates, 6 Fred delegates, and one uncommitted. I voted for the delegates I trust to decide things if this thing ends up brokered. They were all on Thompson’s and Huckabee’s slates, except the lone county uncommitted.

(Tennessee)

This will be my first presidential primary vote in Tennessee for me. Please explain how you vote for various delegates of the different candidates and what is the reasoning?

Thanks,
Betty Jane

A little-advertised fact of primaries is that if/when a candidate with delegates bows out, whoever they endorse gets their delegates. So, considering Huckabee's love of McCain and hatred for Romney lately, you could have effectively have just voted for McCain.
