Florida Casts Most of its Votes for Obama—And They Count Fully
Declaring Florida believes “in one vote for one person,” state Democratic Party chair Karen Thurman has just taken the microphone on the convention floor to declare the state casts 136 of its votes for Barack Obama, 51 for Hillary Clinton, with one abstention.
Thurman was referring to the state Democrats’ long fight to get a full vote for each of its delegates, after the national party stripped it of its votes late last year for scheduling its primary earlier than party rules allowed.
It could not be immediately learned who abstained.
The roll call of states continues.

our votes counting are a little too late for Floridians. This primary has had too much wrong from the start. The Clintons as far as I am concern have done TOO MUCH TO TRY TO SAVE the Democrats after the way they had been treated during this campaign.
NOTHING HAS CHANGED FOR THE DEMOCRATS.
John MC Cain which should have struggled has everything to gain from this primary election disaster.
