16 - superdelegates
The superdelegates are not bound by Tuesday night's caucus results. All of the state's top DFL officeholders are superdelegates, for example. The last two superdelegates won't be determined until the state DFL Party convention.
Some superdelegates have already endorsed a candidate. Here's a list of those delegates and which candidate, if any, they are supporting:
Vice President Walter Mondale -- Hillary Clinton
U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar -- uncommitted
U.S. Rep. Tim Walz -- Barack Obama
U.S. Rep. Betty McCollum -- Obama
U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison -- Obama
U.S. Rep. Collin Peterson -- uncommitted
U.S. Rep. James Oberstar -- Obama

DFL Party Associate Chair Donna Cassutt -- uncommitted
Democratic National Committee member Ken Foxworth -- uncommitted
DNC member Rick Stafford -- Clinton
DNC member Jackie Stevenson -- Clinton
DNC member Nancy Larson - uncommitted
DNC member State Sen. Mee Moua -- Obama
* Given this tally, along with the DFL's initial (but not final) estimates, Obama has a preliminary lead in the Minnesota delegate count of 53-27 (with 8 uncommitted superdelegates).
