Legitimate point Do you remember how the Obama caucus goers out maneuvered Clintons in 2008. It may have more to do with being prepared for dirty tricks than actual how to represent your candidate at the caucus
Somewhere I saved those threads on FR. Maybe under “voter fraud “. His people were very well organized and slick.

As I recall---could be wrong---Hillary banked on the "super delegates" (there are many more in the Dem party than Republicans).

The rules are so byzantine that I hope Trump has a very good "delegate-guru" calculating what he needs, where.

The obvious thing is that while you can "lose" a state, you can't get creamed and come in 3d or 4th, because you get no delegates at all. In NH or MA or NY, for ex., Cruz can't finish 4th.

Then there are the winner take all states like FL and AZ, which add your delegates in a hurry.
