Are selected by congressional district meetings. Last time i went to one (Obama/Hillary). There were people running for the positions. I think we could select two from our district. 5 or 6 folks worked the crowd seeking out votes. Michigan's congressional districts are still gerrymandered so my district at the time was spread from lower in the state (Owosso to Traverse City) we had candidates from top to bottom. Michigan's vote was divided so there was another group picking for the other candidate.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
