He is attempting to lure dumbass college kids to dilute the vote in an open primary, and I don’t even think he is doing it to sway the outcome.

I think he is doing it purely to enrich himself.

You may be right about his motives. However, exposing the problems of open primaries is a good way to get them to be closed up a bit. There has to be a happy medium between a state with an open primary and same day registration with no ID required and Virginia with its loyalty oath.

I actually like the idea of inconvenient caucuses with no absentee ballots requiring only the truly committed to show up.

Yes, I understand that highlighting the ridiculousness of the current process could be beneficial, but based on Herman’s own personal behavior I doubt his motives.

Bigtime!
