Why should it matter since he won Michigan already and will likely win Florida polling?

If Michigan and Florida had not been penalized, she would’ve had those delegates. Without them, she’s still in the lead anyway.

The reason she 'won' Michigan is because the other candidates followed through with a general agreement to withdraw their names from the ballot since Michigan delegates were not going to be seated. However, Hillary reneged on the agreement and did not withdraw her name from the ballot as the other candidates had done. With the names Obama, Edwards, Richardson, etc. gone from the ballot, it was a forgone conclusion that the only remaining candidate - Hillary Clinton - was the guaranteed winner. She now wants those delegates to count.

Hillary is behind in the Delegate count except for “Super” delegates. It makes her look bad. After Saturday, she’ll be way behind.
