is urging people to vote for Clinton if it's so meaningless. Maybe someone with more knowledge can weigh in.

SOUTHFIELD -- Gov. Jennifer Granholm on Saturday rallied Democrats to back Hillary Rodham Clinton in Tuesday's presidential primary, even if her main opponents aren't on the ballot.
Gov. Jennifer Granholm
"There's one candidate who said, 'I'm not going to abandon Michigan and I'm going to keep my name on the ballot as a statement of how I support Michigan.' And that's Sen. Clinton," Granholm told more than 125 Clinton supporters crowded inside the Westin hotel.
Barack Obama and John Edwards pulled their names from the Democratic ballot partly to avoid angering Iowa and New Hampshire, which didn't like other states crowding to the front of the election calendar. Some Obama and Edwards supporters have encouraged people to vote for "uncommitted," hoping that will give some national convention delegates to someone other than Clinton.
Granholm questioned that effort.
"Their choice is to be committed for uncommitted? Or to be committed to someone who has stood for us?"
Granholm was joined by Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich., former Michigan Gov. James Blanchard, college students and members of two unions that have endorsed Clinton: the American Federation of Teachers and the American Federation of State County and Municipal Employees.
The quirky Democratic ballot is not what many in the party wanted and could cause some confusion among voters. There's also concern that the New York senator could be embarrassed if enough voters choose uncommitted.
