Groups of 5 and 2 delegates are allocated based on the district-wide vote. DC's "District" delegates are allocated based on the results in each "municipal district": 7 for MD1 (Wards 1,2,6,8) and 6 for MD2 (Wards 3,4,5,7).
Superdelegates
Sanders (2): Larry Cohen, James J. Zogby
Biden (1): Symone Sanders
Buttigieg (1): Keith Michael Harper
Steyer (1): Jeff Berman
Uncommitted (21): Mayor Muriel Bowser, Shadow Senator Paul Strauss, Shadow Senator Mike Brown, Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton, Charles E. Wilson, Linda L. Gray, Silvia Martinez, Jack Evans, James Joseph Boland, Calla R. Brown, Roxanne D. Brown, Maria Cardona, Alexandra Chalupa, J. David Cox, Leah Daughtry, Joanne Dowdell, Earl D. Fowlkes Jr., Lily L. Eskelsen Garcia, Harold Ickes, Claire Lucas, Minyon Moore, Carol Pensky, Carrie Pugh, Steve Regenstreif, Lee A. Saunders, Rick C. Wade. This is more than 21 names; five of the listed superdelegates are likely not actually superdelegates. I suspect James Zogby may be one of them.
