* Democratic totals include "superdelegates," elected officials and other party leaders who can back whichever candidate they prefer, no matter who wins their state’s nominating contest. They represent a third of the total delegates needed to win the nomination. The totals above reflect the current stated preference of superdelegates who have sided with a candidate.
