"When Republicans in Missouri head to the polls, they are voting in what is called a nonbinding primary. That means no matter who wins the popular vote, it will not determine who wins the state's 52 delegates -- three of whom are unpledged Republican National Committee delegates.
On March 17, Missouri Republicans will caucus in counties to elect congressional district and state convention delegates. Then on April 21, they will select 24 of the state's 52 delegates and award them to presidential candidates. And then on June 2, the Missouri GOP will meet in a statewide convention to choose the remaining delegates. That means today's vote is a waste.
Missouri state officials need to tell the state GOP that if they want a primary, they should pay for it themselves.
Missouri is called the Show Me State. Do they want to me to show them a great example of the government wasting taxpayers' money? Look no further than today's GOP nonbinding primary.
