Dems reopen old wounds over presidential nominating rules
At a Detroit meeting the Democratic rules reform commission debated changes to how candidates are favored in the nominating process. Proposals included a strict 13 week window for primaries and caucuses beginning in March, a 15 percent threshold to win delegates, and expanding at large state convention seats to 35 percent with 10 percent for elected officials. The panel split on enforcement and timing with White House aides backing a sliding scale to protect Carter, while rivals pressed for stricter limits.
