North Dakota Republican Primaries

[Clippy]

Can someone explain this to me as a Canadian on the outside looking in watching every state vote in hopes that Trump doesn't win the nomination for the Republican Party.

It seems like North Dakota's 25 or 28 delegates won't count for either Trump, Cruz or Kalch?

huh?

Why is this state so werid about this, I'm so confused

this isn't technically an election yet. these are the primaries, where the two parties pick their candidate for the election. and it's not even homogenous at a large level other than the delegate count. but the party factioned in each state can pick/choose how they want to put forward their delegates.

in north dakota, people don't vote like they do in most other states. people in the party itself in ND put forward their delegates, and they have 25 + i think 3 superdelegates. which is why you are seeing trump getting shut out of those delegates, b/c the party doesn't want him.

here's a good article to maybe help explain:

Were also the only state that doesn't require voter registration.
