Apparently, there are 14 delegates at stake. NH only has 12.


Wyoming has/had 28 delegates but was penalized 1/2 of them by the GOP for having their event prior to Super Tuesday. Twelve of the fourteen will be chosen tomorrow at their county conventions....

There are 23 counties which are paired into 11 groups with one county standing by itself. The 11 paired counties select one delegate and one alternate to the National convention alternating which county selects the Delegate and alternate each cycle. The remaining one county selects both a delegate and alternate.

The county convention participants were selected sometime back by each precinct within each county who send three participants each.... This system smacks of the good ol’ boy back scrathing fest if I’ve ever heard of one. It may not be but sure sounds plausible to me.

The county conventions meet tomorrow at a pre selected and published time. Some start as early as 8 am while I’ve seen some listed at late as 5 pm......
