Thread Name: BS: Primaries
Subject: RE: BS: Primaries
Well, here's the scenario: Hillary's constituency seems to consist mainly of poor working people and women, while Obama's constituency seems to consist of blacks and professional people. When a primary is held in an industrial area with fewer black voters, Hillary usually wins. When a caucus is hald in an industrial area with fewer black voters, Obama usually wins. The difference in these cases seems to be caucus vs. primary.
