An Agreement, Is An Agreement
Some people are saying that an agreement is an agreement, referring to the fact that the Democratic National Committee has Rules and Guidelines that state the primary dates cannot be changed unless they meet a certain criteria. They are first, disregarding all the facts that I have clearly put forth here - this was a state legislated law that was initiated and passed by a Republican majority.
No one is looking at the fact that the Democartic National Committee has a contractual agreement, within those same Rules and Bylaws, with their constituents that declares they will fight for their right to vote. What was the DNC doing while the Republican majority legislature was gliding HB537 through the process, garnering amendments as it went. Was the DNC fighting for the right to vote for the Florida constituents? NO. Why weren't they screaming loudly enough for the rest of the country to him them? Why weren't they putting this matter in front of a judge BEFORE this legislation was passed? Not after.
The only 'after the fact' here is the DNC's actions. They are punishing the people of Florida without fighting for them when HB537 was initiated. If this situation is not resolved, this can happen over and over again. The DNC and RNC have no governing capability over the states' legislatures. Yet, they set up a group of rules that 'pretends' that somehow they do. And, in the meantime, the voters are not being represented, which is their constitutional right.
