Proof that primaries can be Freeped
I made a thread about this a while ago on whether or not primaries can be Freeped. Here's an example from when LaRouche won 22% of the 2000 Arkansas primary:

In 2000 for example he garnered 22 percent in the Democratic primary in Arkansas.

Tee hee, I know where one of those votes came from.

Yeah, the Democrats did not COUNT EVERY VOTE

May 31, 2000: The Arkansas Democratic party will not include votes cast for LaRouche in their delegate computations. Hence, Gore is the only candidate to receive the 15% of the vote needed to qualify for delegates. (The exclusion of LaRouche is in compliance with a decision issued last January by DNC National Chair Joe Andrew. Note: Reports state that LaRouche is a convicted felon who has lost his voting privilege in his home state of Virginia, that is, LaRouche is not a registered Democrat.)

I was robbed of my vote. My franchise was withheld from me. Count every vote! LOL
