Washington State Republican Presidential Primary Will Not Be Just a Beauty Contest

On June 2, the Washington State Republican Committee voted to choose 51% of its delegates to the 2008 presidential convention according to the results of the state’s presidential primary. This is in contrast to the Washington State Democratic Party, which chooses all its delegates in caucuses (so that the popular vote in its presidential primary is immaterial).

The Committee that sets the date of Washington’s presidential primary is meeting on June 11, and it will try to set the date of the presidential primary at that time.

  1. How come Boss Pelz of the Democrats wants a back room caucus ? Is he afaid of the voters ?

  2. Party Bosses, Smoked Filled Back Rooms and Party Hacks are antiquated clichés you silly anonymous hobbit!!

    The elected delegates to the state central committee voted for a caucus – hardly the whim of some kind of boss.

    The Republicans claim to stand for private initiative and less government spending but at the same time voted for “socialized nominations”. Partisan primaries are a state funded and administered program. Stuff that in your pipe, Bilbo!!

    If you’re interested in a Democratic nominee for President leave your little hobbit hole and attend a volunteer run and privately financed caucus.

  3. I’d just like to thank you for taking the time to create this internet website. It has been extremely helpful
