Michigan, Florida Get Half Representation
The Democratic National Committee ruled that delegates from Michigan and Florida will get only half votes at the party’s convention in August. What do you think?
Gus Yarrington,
Ice Cream Truck Driver
"Sounds like the kind of opaque and seemingly arbitrary arrangement that's sure to please everyone."
Pam Stroh,
Self Defense Instructor
"What losers. Have fun hanging out with Puerto Rico and Guam."
Chris Patterson,
Window Washer
"Given the emigration rate in Michigan and the mortality rate in Florida, I bet the revised delegate counts will actually be more representative of the states' populations come convention time."
