45. The Only Lack Of Integrity Is In Denying 1.7 Legitimate Voters Their Voice.
Are any of them complaining? Are any of them claiming that their votes shouldn't be counted, and had the candidates campaigned they would've changed their vote? Are any of those voters outraged that there's a chance their voice MIGHT be heard if the delegates were seated? Don't you find that lack of outrage even the slightest bit relevant to the notion that maybe THEY KNEW WHAT THEY WERE DOING when they voted?

Obama even had ads running in the state. Hillary didn't. Neither of them truly campaigned, though Obama had an edge with his ads. But the voters in FL had more than adequate opportunities to see his campaign on tv a billion times, see him in debates, see his ads, research him online etc. It's pathetic and weak to act as if these voters didn't make an educated decision.

And ya wanna know something? Wanna know a fact? They campaigned in Jersey. Know what? I would've had no fucking idea. Their campaigning here wasn't visible to me whatsoever. I knew all that knew from tv, radio, and online. I voted accordingly with my KNOWLEDGE. Every one else I know, in the hundreds, who I've spoken with, voted in the same way, without ever having really been exposed to their Jersey campaigns. Did we not make informed decisions? Should ALLLLLLLLL of our votes be dismssed too, because we didn't attend any campaign functions? What utter bullshit.

1.7 million voted and they knew full well who they were voting for and why. You want to take their fucking voices away because you don't want Hillary to win. Now THAT'S a lack of integrity. Disgusting.
