Hunting The Muse

Tunesmith my mother went to her precinct caucus some 45 miles away from where she lives. She was the only one who attended. I believe she had more delegates and no one to take them. She signed up to be a Dean delegate. Could you let me know what will happen to the other three?

She was the only one in her precinct. The rest of the caucus had some 500 show up. She then was the chair the secretary the delegate and she is 83 years old. She told me that the caucus in a rural part of Washington was overwhelmingly for Dean. I don't know if it was ever reported. I am trying to find out.

I *believe* that if that precinct had multiple delegates to award, but only one attendee, then she gets awarded one delegate, and the remaining delegates get abandoned. I do not know this for sure. But if that is true, it would explain why there appears to be so many uncounted delegates in the WA tally where there are 99% precincts counted. It would be because there were many precincts where there were less attendees than delegates.
