Nebraska seeks ruling on alternate delegates allocation
A Nebraska Democratic district delegates official said a party ruling is needed on how the 2nd District alternates are allotted at the national convention. Seven alternates will come from the district with six pledged to Frank Church and one to Carter, while the primary delegation shows seven Church and one Carter. The national headquarters' interpretation is sought to confirm Carter's entitlement to an alternate. Alternates will be chosen at the June 13 congressional district conventions. White said endorsements must be approved by the presidential candidate or agent.
