UNITED STATES -- Florida democrats have said no to a plan for a mail-in primary do-over. This means its now up to the Democratic National Committee to decide what to do with the Sunshine state's 210 delegates.


Democrats in Michigan are moving closer to holding another primary on June 3rd, although lawmakers haven't agreed on how to fund it.


The DNC barred delegates in both Florida and Michigan from going to the convention this summer for moving their primaries before February 5th.

Florida democrats have said no to a plan for a mail-in primary do-over, while democrats in Michigan are moving closer to holding another primary on June 3rd.
Hillary Clinton's camp is arguing both Florida and Michigan be counted, since she won both states. Meanwhile, Barack Obama's campaign manager says he played by the rules and stayed off the ballot.


Clinton trails Obama headed into the Pennsylvania primary next month.
