Disgrace: Democrats refuse to count full delegates in Michigan and Florida

May 31, 2008 by koko chassid

Today the Democratic Party brought itself another inch closer to a 2008 defeat by only seating Michigan and Florida’s full delegations with only half votes.

Florida was a fair primary and Clinton won, so there should be no debate there if they should be counted fully. Now in Michigan it is a different story. I think Clinton should get what she won, and the “uncommitted” delegates should be split EVENLY between who was in the race at the time. The reason for that is, because not all the voters who voted “uncommitted” were intending to vote for the inexperienced Senator from Illinois. Another sad fact that I would like to mention is, Hillary probably would have won the nomination if it was not for the DNC’s “everybody gets some delegates, even if you lose”. That childish process has to end.
