Securing the Democratic party’s nomination is more complicated than simply winning the most votes. There are delegates and superdelegates and the specter of a brokered convention. Then, for the presidential election, you have to account not just for vote totals but also for the electoral college. It is very difficult to grasp, but what certainly helps to keep track of the numbers and calculations is having taken Bill Little’s math class at MPC. As one former student posted on ratemyprofessors.com, Little is “never condescending” and “explains math in such a way that it takes all the mystery out of it.”
