it's not that 2.3 million people didn't cast valid votes, it's that the party has decided to punish the state party organization in two states by not allowing them to send delegates selected on the basis of the results of those primaries to the DNC. The votes do not disappear simply because the DNC refuses to allow the state parties to use those votes in order to select delegates to the convention. In addition, if the RBC decides to go with the 50% penalty, that does not change the fact that 2.3 million Floridians and Michiganders cast their votes in accordance with the laws of their states. Just like the fact that the Americans Abroad delegation only got a half delegate doesn't change the number of votes actually cast by Americans abroad as part of that primary. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]
