Clinton Leads Democrats Amid Primary Date Uncertainty
Hillary Clinton remains the national front-runner as four months remain before the first primary votes. Obama and Edwards claim the anti-Hillary bid, while Florida and Michigan contests shift the calendar and Iowa, New Hampshire, and Iowa pressure early voting. The Democratic Party threatens to strip Florida’s 210 delegates if its primary moves forward, affecting the 2,104-delegate path to Denver in August.
