MSNBC: Chuck Todd said 50% seating for FL/MI based on leaked RBC guidelines doc.

Edited on Wed May-28-08 07:13 AM by yourguide

Not many more specifics. Just stated there is a leaked guidelines document sent to the RBC from the DNC suggesting 50% seating.

Did not mention how Michigan would be handled or what status the supers from those states would get.

Anyone want to do the math? On a half seating what is the magic number?

3. Oh, Don't Do That!

Don't only seat half the delegates. Give the delegates each half a vote, but let them all be seated.

Across Florida, we have already had district level caucuses to select our delegates and a lot of people worked very hard to get elected. How do you decide who to go back and tell that they can't go after all?

Because of the way delegates are balloted (you have to fill the ballot) it could really amount to a mess.

4. I agree - half vote each would be the way to go.
