Why vote if the delegates sew it up?

Letter to the Editor

Wednesday, June 11, 2008

I don't claim to be smart, but will someone explain to us all why we bother to vote for a president if the delegates decide who gets to run?

I mean, we keep getting told about the popular vote, then we get told the delegates will decide before November. If that's the case, then why do we pretend our vote counts? Am I not understanding something?

Joe Nirenberg, Jackson, S.C.
