So in San Diego are they voting for him twice? In other words, is one part of the ballot for the GOP nomination and then his name appears again in the Run-OFF?

Weird. He is in a 4 way race for the run off where about 4.5% is going to a Minuteman candidate...those votes would go to Brian most likely.

However, in the primary Busby is only opposed by one Democratic challenger. Brian, meanwhile, is opposed by 9 other Republicans. Right now Brian only has 54% of the Republican support but would garner most all of it in the November election.

I would hope so. That is the way I understand it.

In Oklahoma we do things differently. The top 2 party candidates only, are in a "runoff" election. If we start out with more than 2, they are whittled down to the most popular 2 in a "primary" election.
