Hillary presses for Florida and Michigan delegates

Things may get messy in the Democratic Primary. Looks like the final decision will come down to the superdelegates as neither candidate is projected to reach the required 2,025 pledged delegates. If the superdelegates do not ultimately choose the candidate with the most pledged delegates, then the system is horribly broken and undemocratic.
Then you have this going on...
With every delegate precious, Mrs. Clinton’s advisers also made it clear that they were prepared to take a number of potentially incendiary steps to build up Mrs. Clinton’s count. Top among these, her aides said, is pressing for Democrats to seat the disputed delegations from Florida and Michigan, who held their primaries in January in defiance of Democratic Party rules.
