Why Should Floridia Democrats Bother To Vote?
2009 July 13
I’m confused as to what it means to have the Democratic Party strip Florida of its Democratic delegates. Does it mean that citizens votes don’t count? Why even vote if that is the case?

It only means that Florida’s delegates won’t get to vote for the Democratic nominee for President at their national convention in August. All Florida voters will have our votes counted in the general election in November.
Wow where have you been bud, Florida primary over. It’s only for toss up should the DNC race come close. Don’t worry about it if your not from there and/or highly involved/interested in politics.

Ok I understand your question now. The reason they went out and voted is symbolism and passion. What it shows is that people are very much so involved in Florida and that it is to be taken very seriously when the DNC meetup at their convention.
There are also local elections going on.
