Florida & Michigan deserve a chance for their votes to count. ??
Obama, has had the lead for some time, but now that people are finally finding out about him and his ideas, he has failed to secure a direct victory over Clinton or even make the gap larger. I have to think that the deciding votes lie in FL and Michigan. I understand the agreement by the DNC to exclude them, but I wonder how the DNC can do that. Don't they know they are disenfranchising people. I mean, how can you pick and choose which states you want to include in your election. Would we support eliminating southern states which may have favored Obama, had there been some erroneous reason to do so? I understand why they wanted to do it, but I cannot fathom any dem that would have ever thought the race would be this incredibly close. They are 100-150 difference. And it has been that way for a while. I know people have their mind made up because it may help or not help their person. But is it truely fair to keep them out of the election. There must be a fair equal way to hold elections.

Guess those states should have followed the rules.

Considering the vast number of citizens in these states you would think they would complain enough to get their votes counted. I cannot understand why they have not held the elections in those states again. I think the primaries should do away with all the caucuses and hold all elections on the same day or within the same week nationwide so that the media does not have the chance to influence so many people. Every state should also have proof of citizenship on every person who votes. Just my opinion, but it seems this would actually let the citizens choose the candidates instead of the forces behind them with the most money and influence and shady ways of getting more votes.

They were warned but the two states still decided to break the rules when they KNEW the states weren't going to count! You cannot break the rules and get rewarded. It's tough but it's life. Maybe they will learn from their mistakes in the future.

"There must be a fair equal way to hold elections.
That quote is from you.
Fair means that people follow the rules.
This is the fair way to hold elections.
Nor good enough for a liberal?
We thought so.
