Election Advantage

Is this fair? I don’t think this is fair as every voter has a vote and should be counted at equal value. How could a democracy only counts some votes as full votes while counting others at half?

The DNC have count the delegates from Michigan and Florida, BUT only at half of the value! Each delegate from these two states will ONLY count as half of a vote. This is called a “resolution”, however, the immediately feedback is that this has caused more chaos than resolute. The Clinton camp is very upset at the deal.

Here is what it means in terms of numbers -

The numbers of pledged delegates needed to clinch the nomination increased to 2,118.

Hillary Clinton’s Total Pledged delegates increase to 1877.5

Barrack Obama’s Total pledged delegates increase to 2,052

Obama needs 66 delegates to clinch the nomination.

Election Advantage? – Slightly for Obama as he shares the Michigan Delegates

The DNC will decide on what to do with the Michigan and Florida delegate on Satuday. Should they be counted or should they not be counted. It is very uncertain on how things will go. One thing is for sure though, there will be chaos. Supposedly, there are more Hillary backers in this meeting than Obama backers.

Check back for results.

ADVANTAGE? – uncertain,

Barrack Obama would have 295,949 votes more than Hillary Clinton if the Florida votes are counted.

Obama has 18,189,205 total votes, while Clinton would have 17,893,256 total votes. Obama would still be ahead. Both other them were on the ballot.

Barrack Obama is ahead of Hillary Clinton by 590,721 with the Florida and Michigan not being counted.

Obama has 17,621,991 total votes while Clinton has 17,022,270 votes. Obama is clearly ahead.

But is this fair to Hillary? Afterall, Florida and Michigan did cast their votes, should we not count their votes? Is this democratic?

If the Florida and Michigan votes are counted, then Hillary Clinton is ahead of Barrack Obama by 32,360 Votes.

Obama would have a total of 18,189,205 votes will Clinton would have 18,221,565 votes.

Should we count the Florida and Michigan Votes?
