30 April 2000: Unpledged delegate preference update: Gore 24, Bradley
0. Unpledged delegates appear in the "Soft Unpledged" field.
The Popular Vote above is based on official
returns from the 21 March Primary.
This Presidential Primary coincides with a state/local primary. These
coinciding primaries tend to have an impact upon voter turnout.
21 March Unpledged delegate preference update: Gore 20, Bradley
2. Unpledged delegates appear in the "Soft Unpledged" field.
Here's how we compute the delegate count:
- A candidate must receive 15% or more of the total popular vote to qualify for delegates. Discard those votes cast for candidates who do not qualify.
- Allocate Congressional District delegates from the qualified vote in each district. Allocate Pledged PLEO and At-Large delegates using the statewide qualified vote. Bill Bradley, having withdrawn from the campaign, is not entitled to receive At-Large and PLEO delegates.
- In each jurisdiction:
- Total qualified vote = total votes cast for the qualifying candidates in the jurisdiction.
- Allocation = (delegates for the jurisdiction) × (candidate's popular vote) ÷ (total qualified vote).
- Assign each candidate the WHOLE NUMBER of delegates.
- If delegates remain, allocate each of the remaining delegates to those candidates with the LARGEST REMAINDERS.

The above information is based on results obtained from the
Secretary of State on April 13, 2000.
Tuesday 21 March 2000: 161 of 190 delegates to the Democratic
National Convention are allocated to presidential contenders based on
the results of the voting in today's Illinois Presidential Primary.
- "105 district delegates are to be allocated proportionally to
presidential contenders based on the primary results in each of the
State's 20 congressional districts. In addition, 35 at-large National
Convention delegates plus 21 Pledged PLEOs
are to be allocated to presidential contenders based on the primary
vote statewide. A mandatory 15 percent threshold is required in order
for a presidential contender to be allocated National Convention
delegates at either the congressional district or statewide level."
The remaining 29 National Convention delegates consist of 26
Unpledged PLEOs and 3 Unpledged "add-on"s;
these 29 delegates will go to the Democratic National Convention
officially "Unpledged".
"The breakdown of Unpledged Party Leader and Elected Official delegates
to the Democratic National Convention below is somewhat different from
that provided by the Democratic Party: the reason for this is that the
one or more of its Members of Congress are also members of the
Democratic National Committee and are considered to be DNC members (i.e.
"Party Leaders") rather than Democratic office holders (i.e. "Elected
Officials") by the Party. However, it is the opinion of "The Green
Papers" that the average voter/citizen or other interested party who
accesses this website would more readily identify Party Leaders who are
also Elected Officials by their political office rather than their
status as members of the DNC and we, therefore, count them as Elected
Officials rather than as Party Leaders in the following breakdown:"
- 14 Democratic National Committee members
- 11 Members of Congress (1 Senator, 10 Representatives)
- 1 Distinguished Party Leader
- 3 add-ons

In Illinois, the Minor Civil Divisions/County Subdivisions are the Townships (in 85 counties) or Precincts (in 17 counties): the difference between the two is that the Township has local governmental functions while the Precinct does not. There are also three types of Municipalities in Illinois: the city, the village and the incorporated town- but these are all (with the exception of the City of Chicago in Cook County) not separated from the Township or Precinct from which they were created. As a result, cities, villages and incorporated towns (except for the City of Chicago) are not Minor Civil Divisions/County Subdivisions of the first order in the State of Illinois and every place in Illinois (with, again, the exception of Chicago) is part of a Township or Precinct. In the list below of the Minor Civil Divisions/County Subdivisions in those counties divided among more than one Congressional District, only the Township or Precinct is listed (once more, except in the case of the City of Chicago in Cook County)
