The formula for apportioning delegates
to the State Convention is based on Democrats' top of the ticket showings
in 2004 and 2006:
|
|
|
|
|
K/E '04 + Culver '06
County Total
K/E '04 + Culver '06
State Total |
x |
State Delegate Total
(2,500) |
= |
Number of
State Delegates |
Round down fractions lower
than 0.50 and round up fractions higher than 0.50.
Example.
Tama County: 8,252
total votes for Kerry/Edwards ’04 and Culver ‘06
Iowa: 1,310,865 total votes
for Kerry/Edwards ’04 and Culver ‘06
(8,252 / 1,310,865) x 2,500
= 15.737
The Tama County Convention
will elect 16 delegates to the State Convention. |
