Michigan was supposed to have 128 delegates plus 29 superdelegates to the 2008 Democratic National Convention. However the Democratic National Convention stripped Michigan of all of its delegates because it broke party rules by having its primary before February 5. Hillary Clinton, who ran unopposed in Michigan, is insisting that the delegates be seated. Barack Obama, who kept his name off the ballot as party officials requested, insists that the delegates not be seated. If the primary remains so close that the vote totals from Michigan and Florida could tip the scales, the argument over these delegates may leave the losing side feeling that it was robbed of the election.
