Indiana Vote Proves Nothing [View all]

Indiana, unlike many other states, has closed primaries. Only Republicans can vote in the primary. Independents are not allowed.

With Republicans approving Trump at 85% and Independents approving Trump at 25%, and 0only 15,000 voters participating in all 7 primaries, it proves nothing. It was a "fishbowl" primary that might as well have been held at Mar-a-Lago.
