Splitting the MI/FL Delegates 50-50 Gaining Support?

[Khaotic]

At least it looks that way for MI:

Could be the best way to go for FL as well.

I personally think it would be the best way to go since the earlier contents in MI/FL were impacted by the voter turnout being so low because the delegates weren't going to count.



Here's a run down of all the different versions. As you can see, Hillary would probably fair best from using the results of the earlier primaries. I suspect her campaign won't let that die.

The graphs below were created on March 14 and don't reflect the delegates gained by Obama in Iowa's county conventions.

1. HIllary won't take.

She shot it down along with some stuff about "people...not numbers".

4. I don't think it matters whether she wants it.

There isn't going to be a revote in either state, and she can at least compete for the supers this way.

The delegates do need to be seated, and this seems to be the most obvious way.

2. In all honesty, what is the point of that?

[tekisui]

3. I am in favor of not seating them at all.

My next favorable option is FL(half or whole) and MI 50/50.

[olkaz]

7. this is not a good idea

The Michigan Democrats are already pissed. Let's not whip them into a frenzy.

[tekisui]

8. Some are going to be pissed, no matter what, at this point.

The Democrats in MI need to throw their state officials to the curb for screwing them. It can't be "undone" now.

[olkaz]

11. Right, but this would be really rubbing it in their faces.

Seat them somehow. I mean, come on.

We need Michigan.

[tekisui]

13. I hope the DNC, Clinton, Obama and MI

can agree to something, and FAST.

[olkaz]

14. /signed

An agreement must be reached, and both of our candidates need to offer some real benefits to Michigan.

Somebody suggested some wind energy plants, things like that. Anything of that sort needs to be offered as part of an overarching proposal soon.

People in Michigan are hurting. Bad.

5. Could Michigan be 50/50

and Florida seated according to whatever the vote was, or something like that since both names were on the ballot in Florida? I don't know.

[Coexist]

6. sounds fine

[crankychatter]

9. Clinton will Litigate

to the bitter end...

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

10. It's Such A Stupid Suggestion In My Opinion. I Don't Know Why It's Even Taken Seriously.

What's the difference between that and not seating them at all? What's the point? The people still don't get a vote. Isn't is just completely useless of an exercise?

[Seeker30]

12. Well thats one way for Obama to steal the nomination

[Hawkeye-X]

15. Uh. That's the *OTHER* way around..

Since Obama is leading in popular votes, delegates, states won, polls, etc.

[tekisui]

16. The other way is to win more votes, more delegates, more states

and get to 2024(or 2208 if FL&MI).

17. God, I thought you asked about the MILF delegates

:rofl:
