Republican Party Votes to Retain Presidential Primary Status Quo

September 2nd, 2008

On September 1, the Republican National Convention approved the party’s rules for future presidential primary dates. The 2012 rules are barely changed from the 2008 rules. New Hampshire and South Carolina may hold late January presidential primaries. Iowa and Nevada may hold caucuses in early January. Other primaries (if they are binding, and not beauty contests) may state in March. See this story.

    The EVIL insanity of the top Elephants continues.

    Will the gerrymander Congress intervene to end the insanity a bit ???

    What lawyer with some brains will do a proper case and attack the separate is NOT equal ballot access system ???

    NO MORON caucuses, primaries and conventions are needed.

    Ballot access via equal nominating petitions for ALL candidates.
    P.R. – legislative and Approval Voting – executive / judicial.
