It is like this. You go to a baseball tournament and are told only innings 1 through 7 are going to be played. But two teams in the tournament played 9 innings and racked up more runs. There comes a tie in wins between a team that played 7 and a team that played 9. And they decide to decide the tournament on most runs. Well the team that followed the rules only played 7 innings and agree to accept the scores from any teams at the end of the 7th inning, but the teams that played 9 are angry because all of their runs don't count.
Those two states were dissallowed in the beginning and people who might have voted, did not because they were told there was no point, and others, may have registered or voted in the Rep primary and are not allowed to vote in the Dem now even if they originally wanted to. Play by the rules, votes count, don't play by the rules, forfeit the game. If the good voters in MI and FL wanted their voices heard, they should have been demanding it long before the forfeit votes occured.
