2025 or 2200, How will seating MI and FL help anyone win the nomination?
I mean, if the number of delegates to win were lowered, how is seating FL and MI going to help anything when it will raise the number of delegates to win from 2025 to 2200?

1. MI and FL won't have any kind of re-vote...so the delegates total will
remain at 2025 I assume.

2. It would close the gap between HRC and BHO, She wants to try and get within 100 pledged delegates to
try and make her Big State and Elect ability arguments to the SDs

3. There was a new Florida poll today that showed 25% of the Dems may not vote D in Nov
If Florida delegates were not seated. Even if it had no affect at all on the nomination, it could be very costly in the long run not to seat them.

4. I don't believe that poll number. People may say that now, but come November they'll vote.
