You have no idea what you are talking about.

The “State” did not count anything.

This was a VOLUNTARY count of the “leanings” of Delegates elected to the County Convention.

Each Precinct asked whom ever it elected as a delegat to the County Convention who they are supporting or leaning towards. The results were sent tot eh Counties who consolidated the results and sent them up to the State Party.

2600 Precincts in King County alone... Thousands or delegates to each counties convention, all paper, all voluntary, all hand counted and completely un-official.

No official ballot was cast for any presidential candidate, no delegates assign to any presidential candidate.

The media in its efforts to get a story has twisted this thing and nobody is looking at how the system really works.

Not to bash Washington but your Governors race left many with little trust in your election processes. Sorry your neighbor to the south.

Well golly gee....... That must be a first.

Don’t these delegates go to the state convention with no preference and from the state they select 18 delegates for the National which remain ‘uncommitted’? Then on the WA Primary day they select 19 delegates that go to the National as assigned based upon 1 delegate for each CD and 10 at large statewide results. Or something like that?
