Does Not Help Party Costs Candidates Too Much
The Virginia Democrats now question the direct primary system for electing U S Senators. After years of effort, they adopted a primary that let any candidate pay to get on the ballot, abolishing conventions. They spent lavishly, factions multiplied, and the system backed by Senator Martin's victory exposes how money and local control influence elections more than direct democracy. The piece argues that legislative selection may better reflect the people, not party machinery.
