I have been looking high and low to try and figure out the numbers who actually come out to vote in Primaries or Caucuses?? I somehow think that come November the voter number's will inflate ..am I wrong on that? I ask this because just like polling ( it's usually based on exit polls or Phone calls to registered voters)

AS did happen back in 2012..GOP was he$$ bent they had the numbers to bet BO..but when dust settled..BO got both Popular vote as well as electoral college votes by a huge margin. After this..I've not always believed my lying eyes or ears when listening to polls.

Thereby I ask the question of those far more experienced with the process in the US ( Canadians do not have primaries as PARTY has convention and picks their leader) to compare Primary voting to pick a nominee to actual election. TYIA if anyone can compare turnout comparisons

There are now only 3 in the race ... we will see what happens if the Cruz sex scandal becomes reality.

Why don't you tell us how any Republicans can win when they don't try or want to win. Republicans
don't even like other Republicans and happily hand the elections to their opponents. Explain how that is a strategy for victory.
