Primaries usually provide a majority candidate that the voters and party coalesce around. But you have to accept that there are times when it fails to give a majority to anyone.

Then what?

The point is that voters’ selection is being undermined thereby causing the majority candidate to no longer be the majority candidate.

These arguments are like well, the establishment will change the rules next election. They’ll have it that you have to have 2,000 delegates to win on the first ballot. The establishment makes sure they keep in at least 3 in the race. That making sure no one can get the 2,000 so it will always be chosen by the establishment from then on? That’s to say this isn’t going to happen from now on? Once they get their man in this time the rules will forever be written their way?
