1. Hipocrite apparently needs some attention.--JorisEnter (talk) 20:50, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
2. This does a pretty good job of breaking down primary elections.--Owlman (talk) (mail) 02:43, 9 May 2016 (UTC) 02:43, 9 May 2016 (UTC)
3. It's pretty well complete for the moment; in fact, the Nominating convention part ought to be split off into a separate article. nobs^{Mr. Trump, tear down this wall...} 01:59, 11 May 2016 (UTC)

Here's the guts of the matter in Primary_election#Reform_and_counter-reform_attempts that would help strengthen the argument made in Southern strategy: the Democratic reform & counterreform movements between 1970 & 1982 drove the George Wallace crossover voters out of the Democratic party through its recommendations to eliminate the seating of delegates at a national convention selected in open primary states without a publicly recorded declaration of party affiliation (more on the Admany study, later). Republicans embraced them by not adopting these same rules. nobs^{Mr. Trump, tear down this wall...} 19:28, 7 May 2016 (UTC)
