Do You Think They Should Have Revotes In Florida And Michigan?

I heard they told people the vote didn't count in these 2 states and thats why another voting election is neccessary. If thats the case I think a another election would be justified. Does anybody live in Florida or Michigan that can say this is truthful or is it just bitterness for losing from the side who wants a do over.

I don't think a revote would be fair at this point. The DNC set down rules and both of these states violated those rules. It seems pretty cut and dry.

So you think it's fair to make taxpayers like myself foot the bill because the DNC wanted to do some chest thumping and disenfranchise voters? Screw them. We had a vote, they can either count those votes or not. There's no reason taxpayers should have to pay for another vote just because the DNC didn't like how early the first one was.

Revotes would be necessary because in Florida the rules were broken - no one was supposed to campaign there yet Clinton held a rally. A revote in Michigan would be necessary because obviously Clinton was the only one on the ballot and that's not really fair at all.

If I was a democratic citizen of one of these states I would be absolutely furious. They are punishing the citizens for the actions of the state senates. It's BS. Revote? If it can be done fairly then yes, I think the people of these states deserve to have their voices heard. And I'm an Obama supporter, not a Hillary supporter, so a revote wouldn't work to my advantage. I just know that if it were me I'd be pretty upset that I was being punished for something I didn't do.

Hilary is just trying to win and will do anything do so. The states knew their vote would not count, and the candidates agreed to not count the votes.

They agreed that the votes wouldn't count, so there should not be a do over. I feel this is just Hilary being desperate, as she knows that she needs more states. Sadly, some people think anytime something doesn't go their way that they should have a second chance. If that second chance doesn't work, then won't she just want a third chance? I think this is terrible. The American public needs to say enough stop trying to waste our tax dollars.

This do-over bit is just another load of Democrat National Committee garbage. They wanted to disenfranchise millions of voters and suddenly the election is so close that they realize our votes ARE important. Screw them. No do over. Florida governor Crist has already said that a do over would cost Florida tax payers over 25 million dollars and he does not support that. I live in Florida and I want my tax dollars going where they belong. I have no desire to watch my tax dollars pay for an unnecessary vote just because Howard Dean and the other ignorant liberals at the DNC wanted to chest thump and got screwed. You know what? People voted in Florida and Michigan. Hillary Clinton won both states. If they want to count the votes, count them. Give them to Hillary. Obama can whine all he wants, but he chose to take his name off the Michigan ballot so he can suffer the consequences. Maybe next time he'll take notes and learn a little about democracy and voting rights. I think the best was when he was quoted as saying that he wanted Florida and Michigan votes to count, but not if they went to Clinton. What a freaking hero. Now I have to dig up that article so I can post it here.

No, no do-overs! Stick to the plan and live with it I say! Hey, I know, let's do them ALL over until Hilliary gets the desired outcome! Give me a break. :)
