Did the people in Colorado have a say in that there would be no primary or caucus held in 2016? WTH is that all about? How can you defend the shenanigans of that process and the trickery it invites?
The grassroots Republicans in the party have the say of how their process works. Why would you open up party rules to a popular vote? That makes no sense.
The general population no, but the political parties have organizers and members and events across the state that define their rules. Then the Secretary of State for each of those states had to approve of the particular process of each party.
TexasCajun can't. It's an ethics issue.
