Florida adelanta su primaria a enero; lío a la vista

St. Petersburg Times:

Florida agreed to withstand party penalties and formally shook up the primary calendar Friday and officially set Florida's primary date for Jan. 31.

The legislatively dominated committee rejected a Democratic motion to set the date for Super Tuesday, March 6, and accepted a plan to make Florida's primary on the last Tuesday in January.

"Florida has more voters than all of those states combined and has an incredible amount of diversity. It is a reflection of the national interest and Florida ought to be an earlly state,'' said Sen. John Thrasher.

El tío Bill estaría orgulloso de la rebeldía de Florida.
