Pirmaries

David Bancroft found an interesting website that discusses New Hampshire changing its primary registration guidelines.  Take a look at it.  It shoulds some light on the power of parties, and the relevance of closed versus open primarie!

Campaign Finance

We just finished the unit on "inputs".  These are things that serve as inputs into the process.  They serve to link we the people to the government.  Elections are an example of inputs into the process and campaign finnce is obviously a part of campaign finance.  Brad found an interesting website that shows how much money is being raised by each candidate for their campaign as well as where the money is coming from.    http://www.opensecrets.org/
