Florida presidential primary candidates' list released
The names of 17 Democratic and Republican presidential candidates who will be on Florida's ballot on Jan. 29 have been released.
The eight Democrats are Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, Chris Dodd, John Edwards, Mike Gravel, Dennis Kucinich, Barack Obama and Bill Richardson.
The nine Republicans are Rudy Giuliani, Mike Huckabee, Duncan Hunter, Alan Keyes, John McCain, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney, Tom Tancredo and Fred Thompson.
Candidates have until Nov. 12 to remove their names from the list, although they would be unlikely to do so. The Florida secretary of state's office has until Nov. 20 to certify the names.
Sample ballots will be out in mid December.
Meanwhile, Florida, New Hampshire, South Carolina, Michigan and Wyoming will each lose half of their convention delegates.
Florida has also lost its delegates for the Democratic Convention, since moving the primary violates the DNC's rules.
