GOP Endorsing Pre-Primary Choices in Los Angeles County
The Los Angeles County Republican Central Committee approved pre-primary endorsements by official party organizations. Fact finding groups would pick endorsing candidates for non incumbents, while incumbents could share endorsement unless a majority votes otherwise. The move departs from tradition and could affect open primaries and intra party dynamics. The plan raises legal questions and risks party fund misuse accusations. It may unleash a dynamic, potentially explosive, intra party experiment.
