GO TRUMP - THE OUTSIDER!

RINOs prefer Safe Zone primaries.

The 2012 Montana GOP lost the Senate race and lost the Governor race while 80% of Montana voted for LR121(cutting welfare for illegals)

They argue keeping the primaries open infringes on their constitutional right of association.

The timing of this realization is awkward.

[Hugin]

Like asking the refs to change the rules in the 4th quarter.

[Red Steel]

I ran the numbers and Trump doesn’t need Montana or SD, ND or UT. Trump will get 1,400 plus delegates without these states and 1,237 is about slam dunk for Trump.

Let these stupid #NeverTrumps close their primary. Florida, Louisiana, Nevada... all closed primaries, all Trump wins. The notion that Trump only wins because of “spoiler votes” from Democrats is Cruzlim circlejerk fanfiction.

They’d better not. Deadlines for switching party affiliation are probably coming up in that state or passed already, which means they’d be disenfranchising lots of independents and other people protesting the GOP who didn’t bother to switch party affiliation knowing that they had an open primary.

That said, the whole “Trump doesn’t do well in closed primaries” was disproved after Florida.

[hotsteppa]

Just wow. They are going all out.

[JSDude1]

I don’t care if it helps Trump or not, there is LITERALLY NO REASON for Democrats to be voting in Republican Primaries. NONE.

It is a bit different for indepenedents as one could argue that at least half of these are disaffected Republicans who went independent because of disgust over leadership, but if one doesn’t have the guts to at least “leave” the Democrat party, one has NO BUSINESS in a Republican Primary or Caucus. Period!

[mabelkitty]

They have better things to do than listen to whiny GOP thugs who they hate.

Really?

[Migraine]

Start the game as 9-ball, then, in the middle of the rack, change the game to 8-ball because the shooter has a dead-bang combo on the 9?
Yeah, that’s fair.

[GLDNGUN]

Good grief. Whoever wrote this article for Fox Snooze is indeed asleep at the switch. I continue to be amazed at the lack of ANY real statistical analysis on the part of the mind-numbed media muppets.

So, here goes once again. Of the various types of caucus and primary elections, which has Donald Trump performed best vs. his current opponents? CLOSED PRIMARIES. Throw out Texas and Ohio because those were home states for Trump's opponents. Look at the other closed primary elections. Compared to Cruz and Kasich, Trump won 72% of the delegates. That even beats his 68% in open primaries.

Feeling lucky, Montana GOP-e punks? Go ahead; make Trump's day. LOL

[blueplum]

sorry, Montana, SCOTUS is booked for the next month or so. Are you Montana GOPe people that skeered so many of your citizens are Trump supporters that you have to go around your citizens’ voices to try to rig an election? silly rabbits

[Pollster1]

Changing the rules three months before the election, based on actual voter opinions, does not impress me as honest. It’s about control for the establishment, and if they don’t like it they should have chanced the rules last year or before (perhaps three generations ago).
