Garance digs up a nugget from a DNC meeting last March:

Our ultimate control is, in fact, seating the delegation. So if a state decides that they are more vested in their own system, and they'll worry about getting seated later, okay, there's not much the party can do about that, except kick them out of the convention. And then I think the party would go through the following question: Is the bad publicity back home worth not seating them at the convention?

Okay, and, guess what? We would seat them at the convention. I mean, unless maybe they're Wyoming or a state that is so wildly Republican that we don't care, and we don't think we could ever win it.
