20% or more of the voters voting in the Democratic primary in Indiana are Republicans.
Why should they decide the nominee for the Democrats?
I think that the Super delegates have to stop that nonsense and tell Hillary it is the end of the road. Game over.

I wonder if you felt that way when democrats crossed over and picvked McCain for the republicans in some of the early primaries? They did the same in 2000 but there were not 4 candidates to split the actual republican vote.

But it seems you on the left may have shot yourself in the foot and helped the republican that could win in this election.

This method of voting has failed time after time.
The Republicans don't have a need to vote in their own primary since their presumptive nominee has been chosen. States that allow us to declare at the polls make it easy to mess with the system.

A lot of crossing over has been done by both parties this year ~ not necessarily in the interest of democracy.
I think people have been so frustrated over the nastiness of elections in recent years that some are joining in.
It truly may come back to bite us on either side.

As long as the Republicans remember to vote for the Democrat in the general election, the practice was worth it. :wink
