Editorial Decision

A few readers have asked why we chose to include the Democratic results on our scoreboard to the right since the DNC says that these delegates will not be seated and each of the candidates have pledged not to participate in the election. For these reasons, originally, we were not going to include it, just as we did not include the Dem results in Michigan. However, unlike in Michigan, each of the candidates names is on the ballot. And there clearly is an election taking place, with hundreds of thousands of registered Democrats voting. So for each of these reasons, we are reporting the results.
