The Texas Democratic Party has announced that their district conventions, the second step in the caucus process, will not be delayed as requested by the Hillary Clinton campaign, and will proceed as scheduled on March 29.

The Hillary campaign had asked that the conventions be postponed in order to double-check the eligibility of the more than one-million caucus participants, and potentially discard the votes of people who might have been found to be ineligible. Hillary won the Texas primary by a four-delegate margin, while Barack Obama won the caucuses by more than that, though the numbers aren't known yet with total certainty.

The statement by the Texas Dems practically ridiculed the Hillary campaign: "The Texas Democratic Party will not do as suggested by one campaign and circumvent party rules to set up an unnecessary, ad hoc 'verification' process that could effectively disqualify delegates selected at their precinct conventions after the fact."
