Costly “Do-Overs” in Michigan and Florida

 Posted March 6, 2008 – If talk continues about “do-over’’  primaries in Michigan and Florida, one things for sure, both Democratic candidates will have the cash on hand to compete in those states. 

Sen. Barack Obama’s campaign raised $55 million in February.  This cash haul breaks all previous records by any presidential candidate.  The campaign continues to bring in small donations from new donors and additional donations from folks who haven’t maxed out their contribution limit. 

Sen. Hillary Clinton’s campaign announced  she raised $4 million since her wins in Texas and Ohio on March 4; bringing her March fundraising figure to $6 million.  In February the Clinton campaigned reported raising $35 million. 

If the Dems decide to hold another primary or caucus in Michigan and Florida, the states may request the candidates pitch in to help ease the states cost burden.  Michigan hasn’t got the cash-on-hand required for a “do-over” and Florida is estimating a primary would cost the state as much as $25 million dollars.

Both Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm (D)  and Florida Governor Charlie Crist R) say it’s “reprehensible” the people in their states won’t have a voice in the 2008 presidential race.  They forget it’s because their states decided to ignore party rules and hold early primaries. 

What do you think the states should do?
