Delgates Why are there more democratic delegates than republican?

How many delegates a party distributes to each state is the individual party's choice. However, Republicans tend to run "winner take all" states, Democrats divide it up according to % of votes per candidate - Originally it was probably thought better to have more delegates so that if a state winner had to share the delegates in a split, having more would make it easier for one candidate to break ahead and win. The originators probably didn't anticipate such a close race moving from state to state.
