WASHINGTON -- A compromise is settled in Washington DC over disputed democratic delegates from Florida and Michigan.
After meeting for 5 hours Saturday in the nation's capital, the Democratic National Committee has decided to fully seat the delegates from those states, but they'll each only get half a vote.
Florida and Michigan had lost all of their convention delegates, after they violated national party rules by holding their primaries before Super Tuesday.
