Would you support the Delaware Primary Plan?

Question

The Delaware plan was proposed at the 2000 GOP National Convention, received 60% approval at a vote taken at that time, then killed by Bush supporters because they thought it might harm their chances in 2004.

In this plan, small states would hold their primaries in March, medium-sided states in April and May, and large states in June. This is to give smaller states a say in the process, as they would provide the early boosts, but the big states would be able to overrrule them at the end if they could. It would also mean that the candidates would not be chosen until the very end.

Would you prefer this over the current system?

The current front-loaded system is designed to get the candidate chosen by Feb 15th, so that they can spend their time and money fighting the other party's candidate instead of fighting each other. But it does make it hard for lesser-known candidates or those with smaller organizations to gather any steam - the person with the most up-front money will win.

Answer 1

i would prefer anything over the bs that is happening now. at this rate we will have the election wrapped up by november of this year. what this means is the big money canidates will always prevail and politics is for the wealthy-on both sides.
