Reply #1: In Indiana, my vote has NEVER mattered... [View All]

[Hoosier Democrat]

Be it the general election or the primary, Indiana is a presidential politics wilderness.

In the fall, we're the first or second state to light up RED on election night (last time I think Kentucky beat us).

Our primary is always the first Tuesday in May. Needless to say, both the Dems and the Pubs get shut out in the nomination process. The last time the Indiana Republican Primary mattered in a presidential race was 1976. For the Democrats, you have to go back to 1968.
