With Ohio, Texas, Vermont and Rhode Island elections tomorrow, here are the latest delegate counts for the two Democratic candidates still in the race mathematically (Mike Gravel is still technically in the race, but has yet to win any delegates), according to NBC News:
Hillary Clinton
1037 elected delegates, 254 superdelegates = 1291 total
Barack Obama
1194 elected delegates, 208 superdelegates = 1402 total
That was the simplest count to recap; if you’d like to dig down deeper, both the New York Times, AP and RealClearPolitics.com have different numbers give or take, which I have been trying to keep track of here.
2025 delegates are needed to secure the Democratic nomination for the President of the United States race. 161 delegates are on the line in Ohio, 32 in Rhode Island, 228 in Texas and 23 in Vermont.
Republican Primaries are also being held tomorrow in Ohio (88 delegates on the line), Rhode Island (20), Texas (140) and Vermont (17), with John McCain leading Mike Huckabee and Ron Paul in delegates, 930 to 248 to 14 according to NBC News. In order to clinch the GOP nomination, 1191 delegates are needed.
