List of superdelegates at the 2008 Democratic National Convention
Template:Future election in the United States
This is a list of Democratic party unpledged delegates, also known as superdelegates or automatic delegates[1], who will vote in the 2008 Democratic National Convention, the culmination of the Party's presidential nominating process that began with the 2008 Democratic Party presidential primaries and caucuses.
Composition
The Democratic Party's official rules do not use the term "superdelegate." This is an informal name for about 20% of all delegates, whose status as delegates is independent of primary and caucus results and who are officially unpledged to any candidate. About half of the superdelegates are current Democratic elected officials -- Governors, U.S. Senators and Representatives. The other half consists of other party leaders.
The following breakdown separates out the superdelegates from Florida and Michigan, whose status is uncertain because of those states' violations of scheduling rules.
Unpledged party leaders and elected officials
The formal description (in Rule 9.A) is "unpledged party leader and elected official delegates" (Unpledged PLEOs).[2]
- 19 Distinguished Party Leaders (DPL) (officially 22[3] less 2 Senators and 1 Governor here counted in those categories)
- 31 Democratic Governors (incl. the Mayor of DC and Governors of Territories)
- 48 members of the Senate (46 Senators and the 2 Shadow Senators from DC)
- 223 members of the House of Representatives (includes the 4 Congressional Delegates from DC and from the Territories)
- 398 Democratic National Committee Members (actually 402 delegates with 398 votes, as the 8 Democrats Abroad delegates are afforded ½ vote each).
The PLEOs listed above currently represent a total of 719 votes; however, that tally is subject to change as events affect individual delegates. For example, the count has decreased due to the death of Representative Tom Lantos; the loss of Ken Curtis's credentials because of his current residency in Florida[4]; the resignation of Eliot Spitzer as Governor of New York (his replacement, David Paterson, was already a superdelegate as a DNC member), and the pending resignation of Representative Albert Wynn. The count has/will increase because of the special-election victories of Representatives Bill Foster (IL-14), André Carson (IN-7), Jackie Speier (CA-12), Don Cazayoux (LA-6), and (pending swearing in) Travis Childers (MS-1). Another addition is likely on June 17, since Democrat Donna Edwards is heavily favored to win the soon-to-be open seat in the MD-4 special election.[5] A more complete history of superdelegate composition changes is provided in a later section.
Finally, note that the tallies here reflect eligibility only; the final, official vote tally will be determined solely by the number of eligible delegates who actually participate in the national convention.
Unpledged PLEO delegates should not be confused with pledged PLEOs. Under Rule 9.C, the pledged PLEO slots are allocated to candidates based on the results of the primaries and caucuses.[2]
Unpledged add-ons
Under Rule 9.B, each state party selects one or more "unpledged add-on delegates," intended for other elected officials and party leaders not included in the above groups.[2][6] There are 76 such slots, which are filled according to Democratic Party rules;[3] in practice, it is usually the chairperson of the state Democratic Party who appoints the add-ons, effectively allowing the state chairs to multiply their vote.[7] The formal selection of add-ons is performed at the state party's convention or at a state executive committee meeting. All 76 add-ons are scheduled to be identified by 21 June 2008.[8]
Totals
The following are the totals according to this list. Other organizations[9] have reported different numbers based on pledged or expected support.
Endorsed Candidate |
Total Votes | Florida and Michigan (unseated) | Including MI and FL |
---|---|---|---|
Barack Obama | 292.5 | 9 | 301.5 |
Hillary Clinton | 273.5 | 15 | 288.5 |
Uncommitted | 182 | 29 | 211 |
Unassigned | 47 | 2 | 49 |
Totals | 795 | 55 | 850 |
Notes:
- Michigan and Florida delegates may not be seated at the convention and their votes may not count towards the nomination.
- Democrats Abroad superdelegates only count for ½ vote. Barack Obama is endorsed by five Democrats Abroad superdelegates equaling 2.5 votes, Hillary Clinton is endorsed by three equaling 1.5 votes.
- "Unassigned" includes vacant PLEO delegates as well as add-on delegates that have not yet been assigned.

* Democrats Abroad superdelegates have ½ vote.
↔ Gov. Ed Rendell (PA), Sen. Robert Byrd (WV), and Sen. Chris Dodd (CT) are credentialed by the DNC as Distinguished Party Leaders[445]
↓ Sen. Barbara Boxer (CA) and Rep. Brad Ellsworth (IN) have committed to vote for Clinton in deference to their constituents' votes in the state primaries. They explicity distinguish this from an "endorsement" and have not personally endorsed either candidate.
Ж Commit Date is the actual date of commitment or earliest instance of public support. For reasons of file size management, candidate-by-candidate citations may not be provided. The best source of this information is from the press releases and blog entries of the candidate websites: hillaryclinton.com and barackobama.com. January 20, 2007 is the date Senator Hillary Clinton opened her exploratory committee for the Presidential Democratic nomination and is thus considered the first date that a superdelegate can endorse her. February 10, 2007 is the date Senator Barack Obama announced his candidacy for the Presidential Democratic nomination and is thus considered the first date that a superdelegate can endorse him.
† The "Pelosi Club" is an informal name for a group of superdelegates who announced their intention to vote for the candidate who wins an absolute majority of pledged delegates. (That will very likely turn out to be Obama.) The group is named for its first two members, House Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi (CA) and her daughter Christine Pelosi (CA DNC), who announced their intention on March 30. The group prominently includes Former President Jimmy Carter (GA DPL, announced May 1); other members are Sen. Maria Cantwell (WA), Betty Richie (TX, March 30), Denise Johnson (TX; April 6), Rep. Zoe Lofgren (CA), Sen. Tom Daschle (SD, March 30), as well as one additional member from Florida: Rep. Robert Wexler (FL, April 8). (Somewhat confusingly, Sen. Cantwell is on record endorsing Clinton, and similarly Sen. Daschle and Rep. Lofgren endorsed Obama; but all three have vowed to vote for the pledged delegate leader. Former DNC Chair Roy Romer (CO DPL) was a member of the Pelosi Club, but he switched to an outright commitment for Obama on May 13.)
