Here is the story!!
Dean Wins Nonbinding D.C. Primary
Associated Press
-----------------------------
WASHINGTON - Howard Dean won the nonbinding District of Columbia primary, more a voting-rights rally than a chance to express a preference for one of the major candidates for the Democratic nomination for president.
Dean, the former Vermont governor, won Tuesday with 43 percent of the vote. Al Sharpton had 34 percent, Carol Moseley Braun 12 percent and Dennis Kucinich 8 percent. The other five major candidates did not participate.
City leaders moved the primary up from May to call attention to the city`s lack of voting rights for its representative in Congress. The Democratic Party insisted that the vote be nonbinding in order to protect the New Hampshire primary`s standing as the first of the season.
Caucuses will be held in the district`s eight wards on Feb. 14 to choose delegates to the party convention in July.
Turnout was nearly twice as large as in 2000. Twelve percent of registered voters and 16 percent of the city`s 257,000 Democrats cast ballots after city officials promoted voting as a show of support for full representation in Congress.
The district`s elected delegate to the House is allowed to vote in committee but has no privileges in the full House. The city has no voting representation in the U.S. Senate.
