Final answer:

The linking verb in the sentence is 'were' and the predicate noun is 'delegates'


Step-by-step explanation:

The linking verb in this sentence is 'were' and the predicate noun is 'delegates'.

A linking verb connects the subject of a sentence to a noun or adjective that renames or describes it. In this case, 'were' connects the subject 'My parents' with the noun 'delegates', which renames or describes them.
