  1. P.R. and App.V.

    NO primaries are needed.

    How does the NE regime survive ??? — Nonpartisan one house legislature — top 2 primary.

  2. # 2 Where is the language in the nearly dead U.S.A. Constitution that has ANY mention of ANY party hacks — with their party hack extremist caucuses, conventions and primaries ???

    What was the first State NOT to have slavery ??? — leading the very hard way to the 13th Amdt in 1865.

  3. #2 As of January 1, 2011 – 46 states.

    You of course mean partisan primary elections.
