Florida Hillary supporters,
you need to run out of office all the "Democratic" representatives who are blocking a re-vote in FL. These people are attempting to rig the election, and are no better, imho, than the Rethugs. I don't live there so it's easy for me to say, but I can hardly believe that those people are doing everything in their power to thwart democracy in your state and this country.

1. MyPetRock I'm doing what I can
I called Thurman's office today and her assistant said there would be a news conference today at 2:15 from Tallahassee about the voting issues. Whether there will be a big announcement I'm not holding my breath.

I also called the representatives who are trying to block a revote and the ones who do not want our delegates seated and told them how strongly the residents of florida want there vote counted and if our votes were not counted that a small group of grass roots people would caucus, send mailers and phone bank the democrats in florida to vote third party Nader. I said your constituents of your district want there votes counted and how would they feel if there congressman disallowed it. So, I'm doing everything I can.

2. Thank you so much UALRBSofL!
I'm praying that Democrats don't self-destruct from this issue. I just told a DNC fundraiser who called our home to fuck off, unless they get the re-count done in FL and MI. I suggest we all do this when they come whining for our money.

7. In my area voters are perhaps 75% registered Republicans.
Republicans hardly have to campaign.

Other districts throughout the state have been highly carved by Republican gerrymandering, ensuring few democrats are elected.
