I have a question about MI and FL...

[mcctatas]

I'm sorry if this has been asked/answered tonite, I was busy writing a paper and putting my 5 year old to bed, but my question is : How many delegates/and how much percentage popular vote would hillary net if those delegations were seated? Would it put her back in front or not? I still don't think MI should be seated b/c clinton was the only name on the ballot, but what about FL?

Thanks for any info,
mcctatas

1. Chuck Todd said earlier that after tonight, even if FL and MI were seated ...

Obama would still have a 100 delegate lead and a 200,000 popular vote lead.

2. No, not at this point.

They will not be fully counted, but the math is not there for her.

3. Michigan and Florida became moot tonight

Even seating Michigan as-is doesn't do it for her any more.

4. What the heck.

Obama should give Hillary 60% of the states as a good will.


He'll still win!

5. thanks everyone...

I kinda thought thats how it was. I think we should seat FL as is and a portion of MI...any other thoughts?

9. One more thought...

if you are writing a paper, putting a child to bed, and trying to keep up with current events, my hat is off to you!! Sorry to go off topic, but I do appreciate what you are doing.

10. Thank You...

When I have nothing to do now I get all antsy, I guess this is just my normal operating mode :hi:

6. "...her back in front..."..she was never IN front

Had she and her cronies planned beyond Feb5, and not cooked up a scheme to push MI & FL to the front of the line, she MIGHT have won..

Mother was right..

winners never cheat and cheaters never win ..

8. My bad...

as I said in a previous post, after typing a paper and putting my 5 year old to bed I have finally taken my well deserved Nyquil with a cup of herbal tea:)

7. Both MI and FL broke the DNC rules by moving up their primaries. The Delegates will be seated evenly

That's "the FAIR" vice "the Clintonian" way to have these two States' Delegates seated. :thumbsup:

11. I was told that my vote wouldn't count towards delegates,

we had our faux vote, and now Clinton Inc. wants to punk me and make my vote count towards delegates. Screw that.
