Hang in there Nikki, the big donors and dems still support you. Plus you got Murkowski’s endorsement.

Michigan had both a primary and a caucus (long story).

President Trump won the primary by 40 percentage points and got most of those delegates.

Today in the caucus he got the rest of them.

Michigan total delegate count after both contests:

President Trump: 51 delegates

Deep State Nikita: 4 delegates

She’s lucky “None of the Above” showed up... she’d be third.

Ah, good point. My bad for not reading closer.

I figured we were talking about the caucus (MO) which actually has some meaning (however limited it may be), and not the one which is so trivial it doesn’t even register (MI), especially seeing as how they just had a primary with 1,000,000+ voters.

The Michigan rules were very strange.

More delegates were awarded today than were awarded from the primary.

2.2%? Is that the potential for clerical errors? Like people who scratched the wrong bubble.

That’s hard to believe — and, if true, scary that a tiny number of party “insiders” have more say in Michigan than over a million voters. On second thought, it’s probably not all that unusual seeing as how the GOP works.

Close enough for Nimrata Randhawa to press on!...

Why shouldn't she? She came in second place, after all.

Was the caucus event today by invitation only?

Every state has its own rules—they are all over the place.

In the case of Michigan and Nevada and a few other places Democratic legislatures played games and ordered primaries when Republicans did not want them—so then the Republicans responded with both primaries and caucuses—but tilted the delegate awards to the caucuses.

The Democratic legislation required open primaries so Democrats and Independents could cause mischief in Republican primaries—obviously the Republicans wanted to minimize that damage.

I hate to link to a site such as NPR, but they do have an explanation of what all this drama is about:

I recall that being the case in Nevada but I did not know it also applied in Michigan. The official GOP excuse for the MI caucus seems to be that they were afraid of too much crossover voting (obviously to help Nimrod) in the primary.

Yet there was also drama about which of the 2 caucuses today was the “real” one. And still Trump apparently got 98% altogether, LOL. I guess the MIGOP isn’t as disunited as the Democrats had hoped for. Yet they are still a disaster organizationally and financially.

I can’t believe I spelled it wrong. Such a common American girl’s name.

The Michigan caucus voters were elected by local Republicans—so yes it was “by invitation only”.

Nikki did not have enough grass roots Republican support to get many of her folks “invited”.
