"Orange County (Florida) Supervisor of Elections Bill Cowles opened his e-mail Monday afternoon to find a fuming message from an Orlando voter with the subject line, "This is not right!"
"I just found out that Florida is a closed primary state?" the voter wrote. "This is definitely un-American!"
The e-mail, no doubt, was from one of the 3.2 million voters in Florida who are barred from having a say in Tuesday's presidential primary because they aren't registered with one of the two major political parties.
Think about that.
More than a quarter of the state's voters are left out."
So they're going crazy for equal voter access in Florida primaries... why aren't we going crazier in Colorado where fully 37(!)% are registered independent?!? @jimjonas
