Found this little tidbit in the article: Republicans asking for a state-run primary instead of the party-run caucus system.

The irony of the no government party just kills me.

2008 had a turnout of 44,324, which was considered low at the time. It was about 30,000 this year, really, low - shows lack of enthusiasm.
