“House Democrats will be briefed Thursday by the Democratic National Committee on the power of superdelegates — who could play a decisive role if the presidential primary enters a contested convention with no clear nominee in July,” Politico reports.
“Speaker Nancy Pelosi told her caucus about the upcoming briefing on Wednesday as lawmakers returned to the Capitol for their first gathering after a nearly two-week recess.”
FiveThiryEight currently forecasts a 44% chance of a contested convention.
