    Your electoral process is really a mystery to me. I don't understand how the Dems can be happy about putting pins on each other's chair whilst on the other side there's one single man cashing in on a traditional 50/50 electorate. Truth, I never looked more deeply into the US electoral process - but fuck me if it doesn't that doesn't looks weird from a common pov. Who the hell votes in the primaries and why? And who votes in second, since there are delegates who were voted? Pretty baffling for a common soul like mine be.
