On Vox: What do you mean, my vote won't count?

Feb 08, 2008 22:29


This is from the Washington Democrats website:

"Last Minute Caucus Questions
    The February 19th primary does not count toward selecting delegates. If you want your vote to count you must attend your Caucus
    Unsure if you are regestered or have you recently moved? Register at your Caucus. No need to be registered as a Democrat
    You can bring the kids!
    You don't need your ID or voter registration card
    Can't stay long? You just need to sign in to vote
    Know any teens? They can participate if they will be 18 by November 4th, 2008"

What kind of crap is this? I can vote, but it will not matter? Apparently Washington State Law requires a public election for every primary. The Republicans chose half their delegates by Caucus and half by election. Democrats hold an election just to make people feel better, but chose all the delegates at the Caucus.

Tomorrow is Caucus Day, then February 19th the election.
