DNC Rules Committee Approves Half-Vote Compromise For Florida
The DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee has officially voted, in a unanimous motion, in favor of the compromise measure for the Florida Democratic delegation, seating all pledged delegates and super-delegates at a half-vote each.
The compromise was endorsed by the Obama campaign, and even received the evidently-reluctant support of pro-Clinton members of the committee.
Bottom line: Hillary Clinton will net a +19 edge in pledged delegates for Florida, not enough to significantly change the math. Up next will be the debate on Michigan, which is a much tougher issue to settle.
