More than 300 superdelegates across the country have yet to commit to either Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama. California has the most superdelegates, and nearly two dozen of them are uncommitted — about twice as many as any other state. As part of our series "Backroom Primary," NPR's John McChesney catches up with California Rep. Sam Farr, who is an uncommitted superdelegate.
