How would Michigan's delegates be divided? |
|
I think it'd be BS to legitimize Michigan's primary since they knowingly broke the rules and everyone but Clinton withdrew their names. But hypothetically, if the DNC decided to award delegates, how would it work since Hillary went up against "Undecided"? Would they just give the rest to Obama, since he's the only alternative to Clinton left?

1. They really shouldn't award them because the candidates |
|
were in agreement that the MI primary didn't count for anything.

4. That is emphatically untrue. The delegates are awarded on a percentage basis. |
|
Clinton currently has 55 and 45 are uncommitted. Meaning the uncommitted can vote for whomever they choose. It is widely expected that they would support Obama as the other candidates have dropped out.

5. But Hillary said it didn't count before hand... |

How could she possibly say it counts now?
