How many of those voting on the Pubbie ballot were cross-over voters, i.e., Independents, or Dems who knew their delegates would not be assigned at the Dem convention and chose to play with the Pubbies primary? If memory serves me correctly (former FL resident), didn’t voters have to register no later than 30 days prior to the primary?
There’s no way of knowing. I saw one news report that talked about voters reregistering, but more were going from R to D than vice versa. Bad news in a swing state like Florida.
I think McCain won Florida because we have a large voting demographic that gets their news from the MSM, so the only thing they knew about him was that he was war hero.
