*How Obama ended up with 13 delegates when Clinton received a larger percentage of the votes I do not know. But I checked three different websites and confirmed that Obama did receive 13 of the 25 committed delegates.

Senators Clinton and Obama have won the same number of delegates from voters in State contests (37). The difference in their delegate total comes from Sen. Clinton having the support of 174 superdelegates (party elite with a vote at the convention) while Sen. Obama has received support from 85 superdelegates. Sen. Edwards has 34 of these. Gov. Bill Richardson had commitements from 19 superdelegates, but cut them loose and many have reselected. There are currently only 21 supedelgates who have not chosen a candidate.
