I believe the rules set forth by the democratic party are that only business that employ more than 4000 employees may hold an at-large caucus..not 4000 caucus goers. Will 36,000 out of the 60'000 members of the culinary union employees show up on saturday? Will they be divided evenly between caucuses? Will they all vote with the union or will some who dissent choose not to participate? Before we throw numbers into the argument we need to keep in mind that they are only "what if's". The math was created that way to be fair to those in the service industry. 10'446 is the amount of total delegates up for grabs throughout Nevada except for those potential delegates in the at-large caucuses. Those who can't make it home will have no choice who their delegates go to. This way they are still able to have a significant voice in the process. It becomes even less UNfair when you consider that they are increasing the amount of total delegates up for grabs, thereby making it harder to obtain a majority. This is how I see it anyway, please feel free to point out any flaws.
