12. Again, you are not seeing the differences
Honestly, your examples of the ST states that were not campaigned in vs. the MI/FLA are totally different circumstances. The ST states all voted under a premise of delegates, and those delegates will be seated, fair and square. MI/FLA on the other hand, had votes that the constituents knew at the time were not to result in delegate seating. Now we want to seat them after all? Even after not allowing campaigning in the two states, not allowing all the get-out-the vote efforts and local candidate offices. This talk of changing the rules after the fact is flat out wrong, and anyone claiming they can't see that is being disingenuous, plain and simple. I am all for a solution where the states can have a real vote, complete with campaigning- a vote that they know will count this time, a vote that will get the 2 states the true voice they want. The efforts of Bill Nelson and other Fla Dem leaders (and MI)are running counter to this. They are the ones that are ruining this primary by not taking the chance to have the re-vote that the DNC has offered.
