#1 There are some complaints of pretty blatant caucus stuffing, in which not only were just some of the Republicans told to bring their "required" registration cards; but hundreds were turned away from caucus sites, as many or more locked out than were allowed in.

Importantly, if they were dirty tricks, they are allowed in caucuses, because all a caucus can do is give "momentum" to a candidate. The actual vote for delegates is later.

#2 Axelrod demonstrated, much to Hillary's regret, just how far you could go in 2008 to manipulate a caucus.

I say do away with them. Either hold a proper primary or hold a state party convention.
