Oklahoma Sets Early Presidential Primary Date, With Crowded Pack of states

4/3/2019

Comments

 
  Oklahoma has held fast to the coveted 5th calendar slot for holding the Presidential Preference Primary Elections. Only 4 select regional 'carve-out states are allowed to hold partisan selection events earlier than Oklahoma. The other side of this issue, is that unlike those four carved out states (Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, & Nevada), Oklahoma does not have exclusive rights to that "Super Tuesday" date.
  In fact, some of the largest states in the nation now are crowding in on this "old south" strategy. After Democrats picked a northern liberal in 1984, Southern states whose legislatures were dominated by Democrats, put together a plan to bolster the possibility of a southern conservative Democrat candidate. That's when Oklahoma switched from being a caucus state to a primary election for presidential preference. the idea failed in '88, but in '92 Bill Clinton succeeded.
  Now there are 7 'old south' states in Super Tuesday, but California (which historically went last) is making the radical shift away from a June primary and joining a total of 13 states.
  When March 3rd ballot counting is over, 40% of the delegate slots will be spoken for. Texas & California are the big prizes.
  In the chart below, you'll see the dispersion of delegates and dates that they will be awarded.

    ​"No politician 'checks off every box" in your list of issues. You have to prioritize and use personal discretion regarding every current and future issue that you can imagine. Then you have to also judge integrity & consistency. A candidate's openness to study the issues & courage to think for themselves. Then you need to review their honesty & work ethic.  I respect any voter's decision, when they've informed themselves and took voting seriously." - David Van Risseghem

 SoonerPolitics.org is committed to informing & mobilizing conservative Oklahomans for civic reform & restored liberty. We seeks to utilize the efforts of all cooperative facets of the Conservative movement... Content of the diverse columns are solely at the discretion of the dozens of websites who create the content.   David Van Risseghem  is the founder of this platform.
 Sooner Politics News is a platform, not a media site. All our bloggers get their feeds promoted regardless of content. As soon as We suppress or delete even one posting, we become an endorser of whatever We didn't censor..The publisher doesn't (and could not) logically agree with all the content, so we would not expect any rational reader to agree, either. What we do hope, is that readers will think for themselves, and at least be better informed of the issues, events, and values that our citizen journalists work hard to provide for free.. We automate much of the tasks so that our sources' content gets as much exposure as possible. We encourage constructive discussion & debate. The solution is more free speech, not less.​
