Nebraska was allocated 31 delegates to the Democratic National Convention: 24 were allocated based on the results of the primary, with the other seven being unpledged superdelegates.[2]
In order to qualify for delegates, a candidate had to receive at least 15% of the vote statewide or in at least one congressional district. 16 of Nebraska's delegates were allotted among the state's three congressional districts. The remaining eight delegates were allocated based on the statewide popular vote, consisting of three at-large delegates and five pledged PLEOs (party leaders and elected officials).[2]
