Essentially, for all intents and purposes, the primary has no influence on a front runner selection. The Republican party has chosen to only use the results of the caucus to decide on their front runner.
The Democrats use a Primary in NV. And there IS a Primary for Republicans (no idea why...) but it's irrelevant. But, since Trump isn't on the Primary ballot, Haley will win the Primary with 100%. The news will love it. But it won't mean anything.
Republican voters can vote in both the primary and the caucus if they so wish, but the primary will have no bearing on the presidential selection. Only the caucus will earn candidates their delegates.
Oops. D'uh. I forgot about her home state. But some big names, including Tim Scott and the governor have endorsed Trump, lol. It will be interesting to see how she does. I wouldn't be surprised if she actually does better in NH than in SC. We'll see. Thanks.
Too close for comfort for me. I hope this makes her drop out though.
South Carolina up next, so not likely.
Just to be pedantic (sorry!), but NV is next.
Though, Haley is only on the Primary ballot, not the Caucus, so she loses by default.
Can you explain that to me like I'm five?

The predictions are that she will be absolutely trounce because the democrats can't cross over and vote in SC.....
Yes they can. We have open primaries here too. That's how Flimsy Graham wins every time.

Do you not get it? The DEMOMrats crossed over to vote against Trump.
It is their typical playbook.
