Question Just to clarify my understanding...
So on Super Tuesday each state has a caucus or a primary to determine a representative for the party's national convention. Therefore it is possible that we would have 50 different representatives however unlikely. At the convention, one nominee is selected to represent the party.....If this is all true I have two final questions. I thank you for your help thus far. You have been wonderful.
1. What is the difference between a caucus and a primary
2. How are the representatives for a given party chosen at the convention?
Thank you again for your help.

Question -
I want to know more about "Super Tuesday". I understand it is the date that we determine which candidate will represent a given political party by tabulating votes in the respective party primary. I also understand that "Super Tuesday" was coined in the 1988 presidential race as a democratic initiative for some reason. When is "Super Tuesday?" Is it always the 2nd Tuesday in March? I have also read that the results on "Super Tuesday" are not official which leads to even more confusion about how the votes are counted and presidential primary representation is determined. If you can shed some light on my dilemma, please do so as I really want to understand the process.
Answer -

Its not a single event its a group of primary elections
all on the same day.
I also understand that "Super Tuesday" was coined in the 1988 presidential race as a democratic initiative for some reason.
It is just name added to primary election when states selected the same day for election day.
Slowly the primarys have been getting bunched up.
When is "Super Tuesday?" Is it always the 2nd Tuesday in March?
It has been the first tuesday.
>I have also read that the results on "Super Tuesday" are not official which leads to even more confusion about how the votes are counted and presidential primary representation is determined.
They are selecting delegates to the convention.
More will follow till all 50 states have made a selection.
Keep in mind this is just a group of single events.
Someone put a name too.
If you can shed some light on my dilemma, please do so as I really want to understand the process.
Through caucuses and primaries deligates are selected to go the convention. Ever state has one.
Deligates meet at the convention to nominate who will run for election.
Iowa was a caucus New Hampshire was a primary.
Answer Just to clarify my understanding...
>So on Super Tuesday
each state has a caucus or a primary to determine a representative for the party's national convention.
No some states have primarys on that day.
Some primarys have already happened some will be choosen today in Wisconsin. More will be choosen on
on March 2, Many more will follow.
Here are the events, http://www.thegreenpapers.com/P04/events.phtml?s=c&f=m
The votes determine how many deligates each person running gets.

>1. What is the difference between a caucus and a primary
In caucus people gather in many places debate the merits of candidates then move into some groups to show who they vote for.
A primary is popular election.
Say the state has 100 deligates
kerry had 50% of the vote he gets 50 deligates
Edwards gets 25% 25 deligates
Dean get 15% 15 deligates
say
Sharpton get the remaining vote
but since it less than 15% 0 deligates
Those 10 geligates will remain uncommitted.
2. How are the representatives for a given party chosen at the convention?
they are office holders, party officials, doners, etc
