The Schrug

Very few, if any, media folks are talking about how the candidates are doing in the delegate count. CNN explains how the delegate apportionment works (in theory, anyway): Why delegates matter in the presidential race - CNN.com.

I guess a headline of “Hillary beats Barack by 3 points” sells more ads than “Hillary and Barack tie, get equal number of delegates.” That’s a shame. I suppose it may be true that a “victory” in New Hampshire means more than the actual number of delegates pledged, but that’s only because the media plays it that way.
