All-night meeting fails to come up with resolution Rules committee searching for plan to count Michigan, Florida delegates Both states' delegations invalidated for violating party rules Members of the Democratic National Committee's rules and bylaws panel convened for more than five hours behind closed doors Friday evening. The meeting ended at 1:30 a.m. ET Saturday -- eight hours before the committee is scheduled to hold a public hearing on the matter.

We have one too.Did the voters in these states know their votes did not count.This is pathetic.

I never thought about it until you just said it! Holy moly, I could so see it too! He does not seem to be too enthus’ed about hill for pres.

[eyedigress]

They vote down statehood and I don’t blame them. Is Guam next?

[NoGrayZone]

I think it’s pathetic that ANYONE could tell ANY AMERICAN their vote will not count. Total bs!

I never noticed it until now but Florida & Michigan are shaped like two cocked pistols.

This just gets better and better.

[NoGrayZone]

I dont understand why PR and Guam can vote in the primarys but not the GE. It should be both or none. Who the heck makes up these rules???

Damn, my C-Span keeps going out!

[fatima]

They threw out the write in votes in Michigan.They just admitted it.Holy Cow.

[conservativeinferno]

They must give Clinton all the delegates b/c if they don’t just think about all of the minorities, chulren (children), and dead people that will not have their vote counted!!

[Kozak]

So this loon wants to be sure they consider all the UNCAST votes.

They didn’t count them.I am just shaking my head here.So there is no record.Where are those votes.I smell a lawsuit.

[Timeout]

Does that mean the write-ins didn’t even get counted as uncommited?!

[RatsDawg]

They didn’t count, and they also told people before they voted that write in’s would be counted as uncommited.

I think they said there were 35,000 write in’s.

"Idiots for Obama."
