17. Registered Republicans were NOT allowed to vote in the NC Democratic primary
However, they were allowed to vote in Indiana's primary.

3. Modified Open. Indys can either way. Dems and Pukes are bound to
their party.

15. That's it -- some Dittoheads were disappointed ...
If they hadn't re-registered (as Dems or Indys), they couldn't
help out with "Operation Chaos."

5. Whatever it was, I'm sure it doesn't count and is totally insignificant.
Is North Carolina even a state?

13. Those 35 delegates aren't *real* delegates
I heard they're like gerbils or something.

18. 35??
Edited on Tue May-06-08 07:58 PM by dbmk
Care to outline that?

Giving him a 20 point win will only net him 8 statewides.

That would mean him taking +27 from the districts. Not remotely likely.

19. Up to 30 point win.
30% win would be around 35 delegates. He was at 65-35 when I posted, it's 62-36 now.

20. If you are a member of the republican party you could not vote in the dem primary
Only dems and unaffiliated voters could vote in the democratic primary.

And only republicans and unaffiliated voters could vote in the republican primary.
