I maintain that the First Two GOP primary states should be the ones who had the Highest Percentage of Population and the Highest Raw Number of GOP Votes in the Last Presidential Election.

You would then get a much better gauge of the actual Grassroots GOP choice of Candidates.

Not the ones the Wizards of Smart think would make The Best Roman Consul. >:(

You want California to be one of the first two GOP primary states?

Sorry. California is actually worth less than Wyoming in GOP calculus because Wyoming actually and consistently delivers electoral votes to the GOP candidate in November.

My formula isn't totally heartless, though, as it would award a minimum number of delegates based on electoral votes which would make California worth as much as, say, a Georgia or the two Carolinas. And that's REALLY stretching its value.
