I probably shouldn’t do this because I’m tired of playing your game.

Fact 1: In 2016 voting in the Republican primary in Wisconsin increased by about 39% over 2012.

Fact 2: In 2016 voting in the Republican primary in Waukesha County, Wisconsin increased by about 36% over 2012.

Fact 3: In 2012 Mitt Romney received 51,329 votes in Waukesha County.

Fact 4: In 2016 Ted Cruz received 75,123 votes in Waukesha County.

Fact 5: CNN exit polls in 2008 showed that the Democratic primary was composed of 9% of voters who self identified as Republican.

Fact 6: CNN exit polls in 2016 showed that the Democratic primary was composed of 2% of voters who self identified as Republican.

Fact 7: In post 159 of this thread you said, “Where did the 20,000 2008 Democrat primary voters “disappear” to, in an open primary? Hey - lookee there! Cruz got 20,000 more votes in 2016 than Romney in the 2012 primary!”

I think you are positing that the 20,000 Democrat voters from 2008 showed up for Cruz in 2016. I believe the combination of the facts listed above and throughout this discussion explains the difference.

However, since you have the ACTUAL numbers, and you have bothered to find the truth, please tell me what the truth is. No speculation, no changing the subject, just the cold hard facts.

Fact: exit polls are NOT fact.

I warned you about your use of speculative numbers. But you went right back to it.

BTW - and speaking of "numbers", I'm FASCINATED that you registered for FR on May 10, 2015, didn't post a single word until you "popped up" suddenly on February 20, 2016 as a Cruz supporter.

Which makes me wonder who got "zotted" the week of February 14...

No worries, I'll find who you might actually be. You have a certain "style". :)

presidio9 dropped off the FR radar on February 3. But he was an ARTICLE poster, whereas you're not.

The arrogance is there, but a different flavor, I think.
