I don't know why the pundits whine that we will not have a nominee |
|
after Feb. 5th.
The whole idea of primaries was to give as many voters as possible a say in who the nominee is.
Just because in previous elections a winner was declared after Iowa and New Hampshire, or after Super Tuesday (that used to be in March) does not mask the fact that most primary voters were somewhat disenfranchised.

1. I saw a reporter the other day |
|
who was hoping for a brokered convention. He said it would be a once in a lifetime event. I guess for a reporter it would be exciting to cover something like that.

4. I haven't heard any pundits whine about it. I've heard some suggest there won't be a winner |
|
that soon.
When has a winner been declared after only NH and IA?
