Thoughts on a re-do primary by mail in FL, MI?
Submitted by MrLuigi on Mon, 03/10/2008 - 8:37pm.So I am a little surprised to be the one posting this, as it is not my area of specialty, and especially since YPP is usually such a hot bed of discussion for alternate voting systems, but how about that idea for re-doing the Florida and possibly the Michigan primary as a vote by mail process?
Because MI and FL moved up their primaries against the wishes of the DNC, they had had their delegates stripped - which was at the time plainly unfair to the voters of those states and in the current situation a disaster waiting to happen. Because of the unexpected closeness of the Presidential race, the prospect of a fight over seating delegates the DNC had sought to bar would seem to be in the best interest of party to avoid at all costs unless you are looking forwrd to 8 years of President McCain.
