In reply to the discussion: A Bernie win in California will still be historic [View all]nadinbrzezinski
(154,021 posts)13. I agree with you, no primary should be tax funded
let's get started.
By the way, oh wise one, the June Primary is colloquially known as the JUNE ELECTION in off years. Care to guess why?
But I agree with you, let's make all primaries paid by the parties from now on. I am all for that! On and not doing it on the day of MY JUNE ELECTION ok, and absolutely no state resources. By the way, close it while at it, but don't pretend it is democratic.. mkay.
