"I believe “Jungle” primaries work to the advantage of the incumbents..."

Yes, I believe it was Mary Landrieu said that, wasn't it?

Mary didn’t have a democrat challenger to split her vote and she made a “runoff”. The Jungle Primary could have well discouraged a democrat opponent and may well have increased Cassidy’s vote and decreased the Maness vote for the reasons I stated. I believe we’re better off with each party having their own primary.
