Zero.

People are kidding themselves if they think the results/turnout wouldn't have been extremely different if there were delegates at stake. Lots of voters stayed home, I'm sure.

2. Delegates have zero effect on momentum too
So you should look at this from both perspectives.

3. "Lots of voters stayed home"

Doesn't mean it would have affected the overall results, either.

In any event, by all indications the turnout was very high.

5. Oh really? Turnout doesn't matter?
I'm not choosing sides and maybe she would have won but this is hardly as important a result as it is on the GOP side. Rudy is done which is pretty significant.

There was a big property tax thing on the ballots and the Democrats are probably going to have record turnout.

What will the next lame excuse trying to downplay this from the Obama campaign?

7. Large number of FL voters snub Hillary's handshake.
