Delegates in Tennessee can be assigned later. As it now stands, Santorum is eligible for at least 31 of the 58 delegates, and probably for all 58. (Fourteen will be assigned automatically to the winner of the state.)
States rarely if ever assign delegates later...that’s an empty arguement. He needs over a thousand...where’s he going to get them...not possible..they aren;t out there for him without the states he’s not even registered in.!
