23 are district level delegates - awarded proportionally from vote totals from the original caucus.

12 come out of the state convention in May (which this weekend affected). "because of the way delegate-selection rules work in Nevada, they will only get to decide the proportion of 12 delegates — five pledged party leaders and elected official delegates and seven at-large delegates — that go to each candidate."

8 superdelegates added in makes 43.

My source because I don't really know anything about this directly: http://lasvegassun.com/news/2016/apr/02/sanders-wins-most-delegates-at-clark-county-conven/
