If it means anything to anyone, Obama appears to have somehow won more delegates in the Nevada caucuses than Hillary Clinton, despite having lost in terms of votes:
A source with knowledge of the Nevada Democratic Party's projections told The Nation that under the arcane weighting system, Obama would win 13 national convention delegates and Clinton would win 12 delegates. The state party has not released an official count yet.
Barack Obama released an official statement celebrating a delegate victory. "We came from over twenty-five points behind to win more national convention delegates than Hillary Clinton because we performed well all across the state, including rural areas where Democrats have traditionally struggled," he said.
It means little to nothing, unless this thing gets brokered at the national convention, and these delegates start to really matter. Goodbye to sleep, if that shit happens...
