WASHINGTON — The Louisiana Democratic Party announced Monday that it will not award presidential candidate John Wolfe Jr. any delegates to the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte. This decision comes even though Wolfe exceeded the 15 percent of the vote in three congressional districts that, under party rules, would have merited him at least three delegates.
“Mr. Wolfe is not eligible for any delegates in the state of Louisiana as he failed to comply with the Louisiana delegate selection plan,” said James Hallinan, director of communications and research for the state party. “Mr. Wolfe violated rule 2B in the delegate selection plan by failing to certify an authorized representative for his campaign in Louisiana to the Louisiana Democratic Party by the deadline of December 9, 2011.
“Additionally, Mr. Wolfe failed to provide the Louisiana Democratic Party with a statement of full participation by the deadline of October 1, 2011. Both rules are included in the Louisiana delegate selection plan that has been publicly available online via the Louisiana Democratic Party’s website since April of 2011.”
