Was McCain's primary an "open Primary", allowing cross-overs (?)
or "closed" to Republicans , only ?

It was an open primary and that is how McCain survives. If it was a closed primary as our presidential preference primary was it probably would be a much different story. He is much despised by most Republicans here. That is why when Senator Sessions mentioned McCain at the Trump rally Wednesday night the boos were so loud. I think his time may be up in November though. All those crossover votes in the primary may be going to Ann Kirkpatrick.

I’m in favor of closed primaries.
