4. too bad the state party didn't care enough
about those voters to follow the rules,

or even to have a caucus later than Feb 5th, or find SOME way to select delegates within the rules.

5. Over Two Million Democrats voted in Florida
There are over one million votes counted already with only 51% of the results tallied.

Turn out was HUGE. The number of actual Democratic votes cast in very diverse and very important Florida dwarfs the total number of actual votes cast for all of our candidats combined in all of our previous primary contests this year.

Real people casting real votes regardless of whether the delegates they selected get seated.

9. Actually it was not a good turn out - about only 1/3 of the listed voters in the
precinct I was in showed up. That was surprising too...unless they had done early voting they sure did not show up at the poll.
