Maybe We Should Call It A Secondary


So have you made plans yet for your summer vacation? You might skip June. You are going to need to be here to vote in the Florida Secondary.
I know you thought you voted in the Primary back in January, but that didn’t count, or at least if you believe the head of the Democratic Party it didn’t. If you watched DNC head Howard Dean on TV this morning you might get the feeling - if you are a Floridian or Michigander - you are sitting in the principal’s office and about to get your punishment.
Look at it this way, you might get to try out the latest voting machines you have shelled out for as we continue trying to figure out how to hold an election.

I have to say that I don’t agree with all the mess over the Democratic primary.In my opinion they should’ve let it count.If not then they(democrats) can pay if they want it redone.
My problem is you calling registered Democrats Wackos!!! That is insulting,and should’ve been thought about before saying.
It is not the fault of Democrats in general.We were not happy that they chose not to count our votes.This doesn’t mean we are Wackos!
Here’s to hoping for resolution!Also my husband is registered independent,because both patries have done things he thought was dumb,and therefore didn’t want to be classified as either.

What gives ANY organization the right to tell a state when they can or cannot hold elections?

Please stop whinning about this. Florida Democrats were told that this vote wouldn’t count. So like little children, they did what they were told not to, and now they’re complaining about the punishment. Grow up everyone!!
