American Samoa Democratic caucuses , 2008 took place on February 5 , 2008 , also known as Super Tuesday . Caucusing began at 11:00 am local time . The early time ensured that results would be reported that evening in the mainland United States . Hillary Clinton won the caucus , the smallest of Super Tuesday 's nominating contests . The caucus drew a record turnout for the territory . A record-setting 285 caucus goers , who voted for their candidates at a hotel in the capital , Pago Pago , turned out for the caucus . The caucus selected six pledged delegates to the 2008 Democratic National Convention ; however , each delegate received only half a vote , so the caucus essentially determined the allocation of three delegate votes . Since the pledged delegates were awarded proportionally , Clinton secured 2 delegates , with the third going to her opponent Barack Obama
