From what I've been reading, this could have a huge effect on local races...

That said... Since it's a Hillary Sweep, who wants to bet that ALL 60 of Michigan's Delegates get seated at the Dem Convention now?

good, maybe the democrats who were going to vote for McCain will lose interest and we can finally have a GOP primary with actual GOPers.

This is good news for Romney. McCain needs the independents and Dems to crossover to win. Those type of votes are less reliable and be more likely to stay home due to poor weather.

By extension, this is good news for Fred Thompson as well. It stops McCain’s mo, and lays the table for an upset in SC.

The news is already saying that the delegates will be given back (all of them). They were snickering that they thought Obama and Edwards made a mistake not adding their name and Hillary will get all 60.

“there is “little to no waiting” at the polls in the Detroit metro area”

But, they will still report their returns last.

I would’ve been tempted to play the “disenfranchised by your own party” card on the Democrat voters in Michigan. Still might not have gotten any new voters out, but it’d be worth a shot.

Any WIN for Republicans will be glossed over like WY and everymedia outlet will move to next state.

Low turnouts favor conservatives.
