Special elections or conventions should be held in MI and FL to determine delegates
Let me first state that I did not agree with the DNC decision to not recognize the results of the Florida and Michigan primaries, but once the decision was made and communicated to the Democratic parties of both states I felt that rule should have been obeyed. This is not about the merits of whether or not the decision should have been made, this about the fact the ruling was made and should have been followed.

I want the delegations of both states to be seated at the convention but because the race is so close it is important that selection of the delegates be done with the utmost integrity. Just seating the delegations as is would be wrong and unfair, the only solution would be for the DNC and the Democratic parties of both states to come up with a special election and/or statewide nominating convention strategy.
