Daley and his 59 Cook County delegates with a half-vote each at the Democratic National Convention. "But there's no room for compromise at all on California," the South Dakotan said yesterday.

S. Supreme Court decision Friday allowed the Cook County court to take jurisdiction. The practical effect of the injunction was in doubt. Most challengers had been scheduled to take a flight to Miami that left prior to the ruling, and probably could not be served with notice of the court action. But McGovern asserted that the California delegation meets requirements of the law and the party's reform rules.
