At stake in Tuesday’s Kentucky Democratic presidential primary election are 55 pledged delegates to the July 25-28 presidential nominating convention in Philadelphia.

Kentucky’s delegates will be apportioned to the candidates according to the percentage of votes each wins. A presidential candidate must get at least 15 percent of the total vote to earn delegates.
