About
(I hope I have the name of the event right.) The 2016 Nevada Democratic State Convention took place on May 14-15, 2016. Wikipedia describes its significance thusly: "At the state convention on May 14–15, the final 35 pledged delegates to the National Convention will be selected. 23 of them are allocated proportionally based on congressional district results, whereas the remaining 12 are allocated based on the state convention as a whole."
A controversy has erupted over events at the convention; we are still collecting information.
