I still don’t see why states that are having major elections in November, 2007 don’t go ahead and put the primary on at the same time. It would save a significant amount of money for the taxpayers.

Hmm...not a bad idea. I don't think many states have odd year elections, though.

OTOH, wouldn't it be refreshing to have a British style election? Their campaigns are only three weeks long!

LA and MS elect governors in Nov 2007. As I recall, Washington and Allegheny County, PA elect commissioners (maybe all counties in PA)?

Mississippi and Louisiana are the only two I can think of.

No statewide offices or even state legislator elections in "odd" years but we have city council elections, mayoral elections, school levies, etc. here in Ohio in '07
