Michigan has 147 superdelegates. These superdelegates are party leaders and elected officials who have the ability to support any candidate they choose at the Democratic National Convention, regardless of the primary election results. Their role is to provide a measure of influence within the party's nomination process.
74 delegates plus 18 super delegates democratic. 40 delegates republican
Michigan has a total of 125 delegates for the presidential primary. This includes both pledged delegates, who are awarded based on the primary vote, and unpledged delegates, often referred to as superdelegates. The distribution of pledged delegates is determined by the results of the primary election, with a proportional allocation system in place.
The answer is 65. They have 52 regular delegates and 13 super delegates.
No, the Republican Party does not have super delegates like the Democratic Party.
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.
I believe around 2,105 delegates are at stake in total.
Only one...they are only called super delegates because they are famous (actors, politicians etc.)...the fact that they are called "Super Delegates" in no way denotes that they are more intelligent, qualified or otherwise significant.
I found this link about superdelegates. I hope this is helpful http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/01/the_democratic_nomination_a_hoot
At the time of the DNC Convention, each candidate will have had the opportunity to win as many delegates as are practical. All committed delegates are supposedly required to vote for their candidate on the first ballot. If there is no victor, they move to a second ballot. Everybody is allowed to switch. At the time of the voting, the super delegates come into play. They are the party loyalists who are selected by the politically powerful within the Democrat Party. For example, every Democrat in each house is a super delegate. The votes of the committed delegates are clear, prior to the voting. In the Democrat Party, the committed delegates can change their mind prior to the first ballot. The super delegates have votes that are not tied to the elected delegates. The super delegates are required to vote as they are told or face party discipline. These super delegates have votes that are above and beyond the numbers tallied by the contestants. That is, they are 'ADDED TO the totals already there.' It is because of these super delegates one can surmise the standard bearer will be the distaff candidate.
