no, what i was pointing out is that if only one candidate meets the 15% threshold they get all the state delegates.

i previously only understood it as if you dont get 15% of the vote they basically throw them out and you get no delegates. i didnt know someone had the possibility of taking all of the delegates. its a somewhat remote possibility but still.

i was wondering the proportional delegates of everyone didnt meet 15% would be left as "uncommitted" so i looked it up. what happens is that anyone that does meet 15% or above splits up the delegates, no delegates are left uncommitted (besides the no longer but still basically super delegates).
