KCDP Calls for Caucus

For what it's worth, the Kent County Democratic Party Executive Committee voted last night to request a new caucus to fix the MI primary mess. The motion will go to the MDP, which will summarily reject or ignore it for a host of reasons.

Everyone understands that staging a caucus at this point will be a challenge - but it was good for the KCDP to go on record and say it doesn't accept what happened in January.

Clinton supporters opposed the move. Interesting to note the the GR Press also called for a do-over in their Editorial yesterday. Not too often that the Press and the KCDP are on the same side of anything.

Most of the national reports about Clinton wanting to seat and Florida and Michigan delegates say "Neither candidate campaigned officially in either state" and leave out the critical fact that in Michigan Obama wasn't even on the ballot! It makes me crazy. Anyway it will never happen. Do-over!
