As of March 18, 2012, Mitt Romney has secured 518 delegates of the 1,144 required. This number includes his 488 pledged delegates and 30 unpledged delegates. He secured 20 delegates in the Puerto Rico Primary that took place 3/18/12. This leaves him needing only 626 delegates to secure the Republican Presidential Nomination.

Florida was supposed to have 210 delegates. However the Democratic National Convention stripped Florida of all of its delegates because it broke party rules by having its primary before February 5.
Voting is at 10am sharp after short words on behalf of candidates (check your local listings) The delegates are awarded 3 from each of the 4 districts to the winner of the district. As well as 25 awarded proportionately to the candidates who get more than 20% of the vote, and 3 for the outright winner to make 40 delegates total

Michigan was supposed to have 128 delegates plus 29 superdelegates to the 2008 Democratic National Convention. However the Democratic National Convention stripped Michigan of all of its delegates because it broke party rules by having its primary before February 5. Hillary Clinton, who ran unopposed in Michigan, is insisting that the delegates be seated. Barack Obama, who kept his name off the ballot as party officials requested, insists that the delegates not be seated. If the primary remains so close that the vote totals from Michigan and Florida could tip the scales, the argument over these delegates may leave the losing side feeling that it was robbed of the election.

By using the 3/5ths compromise.Only counting 3 out 5 slaves to be counted as 1.
The fraction 3/5 is compromise. It is in between delegates.
40 delegates signed, 13 weren't there and didn't sign, and 3 refused to sign.
