won't accept a do-over in Florida even though many people stayed home and did not vote because they thought their votes won't get counted???

No, she's saying take the early results and have NO DO-OVER, even though most people stayed home and didn't vote because they were told their vote wouldn't count. And she has the nerve to say she cares about voters being disenfranchised :roll: :roll:
So first it's "many people", then it's "most people"...next will it be "almost everyone"? Voter turnout was pretty high in florida actually:

Record Voter Turnout in Florida
Voting was brisk throughout the day. Even before primary day, more than 1 million Florida residents, or about 10 percent of all those eligible, participated through absentee ballots or early voting. (Florida is one of several states to allow early voting at select polling stations.)
In the last Florida GOP contest in 2000, 700,000 Republicans voted. This year, about 1.9 million did. Democratic turnout was also up dramatically from 2000 and 2004, with at least 1.7 million voting on that side.

I'm sure some people didn't vote, but you have no evidence Obama supporters stayed home in larger numbers than Clinton voters. All evidence is this was a full and fair primary. It still shouldn't count, but your arguments are weak.
