2008 National Delegate Allocations 

Secretary of State Debra Bowen’s certified presidential primary election results, statewide, by county and by Congressional District (CD) are available now online.  Using these results, we have allocated the number of delegates each candidate has won in each CD, by gender, based on the Democratic National Committee (DNC) Plan that gave California Democrats 241 district-level delegates to be distributed in 53 CDs (three to six per CD).

Gender Balance
Under the DNC Rules each state must rotate its delegate allocation by gender.  The gender rotation starts in CD 1 with a female and then goes back and forth male to female through the 53 CDs.  The Alternate rotation is different than the delegate gender rotation to balance out to 20 females and 20 males.

District-Level Delegates -- Elected at the April 13 Congressional Caucuses
Hillary Clinton won in 42 CDs and Barack Obama won in 11 CDs.  Clinton is allocated 134 district-level delegates.  Barack Obama is allocated 107 district-level delegates.  Forty CDs have an Alternate, which is awarded to the winner in that CD. 

Slots Not Available in All Congressional Districts
Please note that there are 13 CDs in which Obama won only one delegate, which means that in these 13 CDs, only one gender can run to be a district-level delegate for Obama (nine CDs are male only and four CDs are female only).  Check to see if your CD is one of those 13 single-delegate districts. If there are no slots for your gender, you can consider filing to be selected as an At-Large Delegate (Form B) for Obama. At-Large and PLEO Delegates will be confirmed at the May 18 Delegation Meeting.

Statewide (At-Large and PLEO) Delegates -- Chosen at the May 18 Delegation Meeting
Between the two candidates -- Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama -- Clinton won the statewide vote with 54.4 percent of the vote and therefore she gets 44 At-Large Delegates (Form B) and 26 PLEO (Form C) Delegates.  Barack Obama won 45.6 percent of the vote and gets 37 At-Large Delegates and 22 PLEO Delegates.
