[Magdalen] pondering politics

[Lynn Ronkainen]

... interesting primary voting factoid I was unaware of until this season... 
Each party has different rules for the primary voting/elections - for 
ratios, for breakdown of who gets who... so what I had perceived as two 
candidates 'playing by the same rule book' each time there was a primary - 
no way.  The Republican Party has tweaked their 'rules' every time they have 
a snag (like pesky Paulson, running so many times) over the year.  Who knew.

Who here was aware that each party's primaries had different parameters?
