Florida and Michigan were punished by the DNC for moving their primaries forward without permission. Consequently, the DNC stripped the states of their primary delegates.

Howard Dean, DNC Chairman, wants Florida and Michigan to repeat the Presidential nominating contests. The proposed "do-over" sounds more like a resolution to conflict found on a playground instead of in a race for President. But there's a good chance it will happen anyway, despite the ridiculousness of it all and the fact it will cost the states up to $30 million. If the do-over doesn't happen, the Democratic nomination might be decided by a court of law.
