...the Florida and Michigan? when they are allowed to vote? and then punish those states for not obeying them? Isn't this arrogant of the DNC? The same goes for the republican leadership since they took away half the votes for the same reason. Why do both parties think they have the right to tell States when they are allowed to votes. Are both parties overstepping their boundaries? Are both parties being arrogant?

It's being always like that. Each party has their own rules, and Hillary and Obama BOTH agreed on not counting Florida & Michigan.

Because those are the rules and they all knew the rules before any campaigning started.

Got a news flash for you Fla and Mich voted to approve the rules. They give the DNC the right. However the DNC was all for a revote blame this on your state legislators.

No, that is how the process is set up. They took no liberties that were not allowed . Arrogance has nothing to do with it. the DNC and RNC exist to create some level of organization and order, otherwise states would run amok!
