A vote for either of the major Republican candidates works because it would deny the 50% to the liberal front-runner.

What on earth is going on here? You've got two Republican candidates fighting against a single "democrat" in the primaries?

Somebody please explain to me how splitting the vote in a party helps defeat the other party, whose vote is not "splitten."

I must be missing something here....

I think if any candidate gets 51%, they win.

But being as two gopers want to run, if they keep the dem from getting the 51%, hopefully one of the repubs will bow out and back the other one.
