Isnt this interesting.
The dems are saying that the Florida Dem primary may not count.

This must be their way to insure that the "proper" candidate gets the vote.



Quote:
On Jan. 29, Florida Republicans and Democrats head to the polls to pick presidential nominees. Republican votes count, just as you would expect, but the results for Democrats would be nonbinding. No delegates would be awarded based upon the results and instead party activists and insiders would decide on some later date how to divvy up the state's more than 200 delegates to the Democratic national convention



Why should the dem candidates campaign in Fl at all if the primary wont count?

Whether I am or not is unimportant.

I just find the whole thing interesting,especially since they seemed so concerned that EVERY vote cast in Florida count.

Now they dont want those same votes to count.

My guess is that it's because they're scheming, unethical scumbags, just like Republicans.
