There are about 4,000 delegates at the Democratic National Convention and so far "Uncommitted" has secured 20.  I'd wager they'll end up with 50-100 for about 2% of the vote.

I wonder what will become of these people?  Will there be "Uncommitted" delegates at the convention?  If so, how are the delegates decided, since there's no campaign to select and submit delegates?  Will they be normal people, or just the biggest leftist assholes imaginable?  Will they try to disrupt the convention, and if so, will they be successful?

It's interesting to speculate on.

My assumption is that each state party will just appoint loyalists to be the Uncommitted delegates.

Yeah I should probably have clarified that when I say "the DNC will prevent them from attending" I just mean that the current rules will be used to ensure that normal people are appointed to those slots rather than raging assholes, not that the assholes will show up at the gate and be barred from entering.
