Florida's delegate prizes

As Florida’s Presidential Preference Primary is Tuesday, all eyes are on the prize of the state’s 219 delegates to the Milwaukee Democratic Convention in July. However, Florida is not a winner-take-all state, as the Democratic National Committee rules operate on a national basis for the Democratic Party delegates.

Delegates are awarded on a proportional basis to candidates who achieve the viability mark of 15%.

Think of it as 28 individual elections within the state. There is one statewide election for 47 at-large delegates, and 27 congressional district elections awarding from three to seven delegates, based on the district’s past performance.
