pledged delegate

基本解釋

In the delegate count estimated by CNN he leads by around 120 if you count only pledged delegates and over 40 if you include “superdelegates” (bigwigs with ex officio vote at the convention).
根據(jù)CNN預(yù)測(cè)的情況來看，奧巴馬承諾代表中的領(lǐng)先優(yōu)勢(shì)在120席左右，如果包括依職權(quán)在大選中投票的“超級(jí)代表”則優(yōu)勢(shì)減少到40席。

But I will say that it was really cool to be able to go into the voting booth on April 24, 2012 and see my name on the screen as a pledged delegate in support of President Obama.
