I'M SO CONFUSED!! (someone help me, please??)
delegates.

michigan.

did the dnc take away michigan's delegates because they moved their primary up?

that's what i thought--and i thought the same thing happened to florida.

and i thought the rnc was "boycotting" those states along with the dnc & the democrats.

so, it just occurred to me--if florida has no delegates then why does ghoulani want to win florida if there are none to be had?

i realize i am really misinformed on this--and totally confused.

PLEASE, IF YOU KNOW THE ANSWER, HELP ME! please.

1. RNC only took away half
DNC warned, gave extra warnings, got ignored after months of warnings and took away all of them.

2. As far as I understand...
Michigan and Florida's Democratic parties are being blacklisted by the DNC and their delegates might not be counted, but the same is not true of the Republicans.

3. the state delegates will be seated - but must be chosen after 2/5 - the primaries are only "beauty
contests"
