Oops - this from politico - By disclosing his retirement one day before the filing deadline, the idea was that no Democrat would qualify for the primary ballot and the party’s state central committee could tap their favored candidate.

And since Indiana is an open Primary in Lugars safe years, and with a motivated conservative movemeent in the breeze, the Party didn't want to trust this to the voters.

This is typical Dem tactic (we see it every election where I am at in Indiana).

The Dems do not run a primary - they cross vote in the Repub primary and then once the Repub candidate is chosen then they "find" someone to run against that person.
