In the end it seems that primaries draw candidates outwards in ways that most general elections cannot entirely reverse.
In the primaries that followed it is difficult to disentangle the race issue from other local issues.
Thus, in recent years, most candidates exit the presidential contests prior to the conclusion of the presidential primaries.
A number of candidates quickly leave the contest as they fail to win in the early primaries.
The net effect of all of these revisions on the specification of optimal primaries is small (440 and 488 nm).
Based on the above arguments we conclude that the weakening of party competitiveness cannot be blamed on primaries.
In terms of institution building within the party, the open primaries of all registered voters are not recognised as a nomination method in the statutes.
The joint effects of unequal competition, the centrifugal pull of primaries and costly movement ensure that 'moderate extremism' is the norm.
