Why not give them 3/5 of a vote?

3/5 of a vote?
_______________________________

That was my immediate thought...

1/2 a vote sounds much like 3/5 of a vote from the Missouri Compromise

This seems like a perfect compromise. Everybody will be pissed at this decision.

Have the lawsuits been filed yet? If not Monday morning there will be flurry.

There won't be a lawsuit. Hillary can't afford it, and it wouldn't have a chance anyway.

Her route is to the credentials committee, then to the floor of the convention.

Obama's people will control the podium and the gavel, but it's easy to imagine the Clintons trying to grab the stage.

You do realize that none of the caucus votes were counted? Had they been, she certainly wouldn't have the popular vote.

The ‘Popular vote v. Electoral College’ party.

The ‘One Man (person, living or dead), One(or more) Vote party.

I love it. Shows them for the hypocrites they are.

I think there will be a suit but not by Clinton. It will be some group od disenfranchised voters. The argument should be that they only got half the vote through not fault of their own. BTW I am not counting Clinton out until the election is OVER.

My first thought too. The last time I’ve seen something that idiotic and immature was at a Jr. High School student government meeting.

This decision of seating half the delegates seems strangely appropriate, since one would need to be a half-wit to vote Democrat, anyway.

I have been predicting this for eons....

She won't stop, I am waiting for her to go "Indy" and start a new Democratic Party based on Bill's DLC experiences.

Yes, with the Michigan and Florida counting, Hillary has the popular vote and she will sell that to the Super Delegates.

This is too funny.

After all the crap they gave GWB about "Chad-Gore" and the 33 days from hell, they are going to do the same thing!

I can't wait for the Lawyers and "The Supreme's" to get involved!

Time to stock up on popcorn......

Did we give each delegate 1/2 a vote or take away half their delegates? I think there is a big difference and it shows how dems like to parse everything.

I looked but couldn’t find any reference to this. When did the Repubs take away delegates? Please give me a link so I can read the article.
