This says there are 13 candidates: 1 Dem, 1 independent, and 10 Republicans! As usual, the Republicans can’t get their act together. The Dem will likely get enough votes to have a runoff against the top Republican. If no candidate gets 50%, the runoff will be held on April 24.

12 candidates
Republicans can’t get their act together. Alabama had a Democrat senator because the Republicans trip all over themselves. They really need to get their act together.
C’mon freepers. All this party needs to get its act together, too many candidates running, stuff. Like we really want the party picking our candidates.

Like the GOPe would ever select the Trump candidate in the primary. this is somewhat a free country and anyone is free to run if they want. You all want it both ways.
At some point though you have to get smart about things. You just can’t have 5 people that you can’t tell apart running for an office.
