Complex Texas delegate math

Delegate Math Could Cloud Results

Excerpt:

The biggest prize is Texas, with 193 delegates, where the Democrats will have a primary and a caucus.

The primary will determine 126 delegates, based on voting in 31 individual state Senate districts. The caucuses will determine 67 delegates. They will be awarded based on the statewide results of the caucuses, which will be held after the primary polls close.

The two-step system increases the possibility that the primary winner might not win the most delegates to the party's national convention this summer.

Comment: Shades of that dizzying New Math that made me cross-eyed in the '60s!
