Notes:
Allan Katz of Florida is a member of Obama’s national finance committee. It will be interesting what he does, or even if he is allowed to vote on the Florida challenge. The same question would hold for Mark Brewer of Michigan for the Michigan challenge.
Update:
Section 3.4 (P): Voting: A member of the RBC shall not vote on a challenge arising in his or her own state.
But note that Katz can vote on Michigan’s challenge, and Brewer can vote on Florida’s challenge.
Ralph Dawson is one of the very few New York superdelegates that have not endorsed Clinton.
Update: Here are the Regulations of the Rules and Bylaws Committee

No one will ever come out of that meeting site. When the search party breaks in to see what happened to the Dems, it'll find nothing but rags, bones and hanks of hair on the floor.
The Gingham Dog and the Calico Cat
Side by side on the mantle sat
And the truth about that cat and pup?
They finally ate each other up
Bon apetite, 'Rats!

Nah... of course Fox started talking over him. I switched to CNN just because I wanted to listen to this instead of more blabber.
