The voter turnout in the Wisconsin primaries Tuesday surpassed expectations and broke records. Around 1.1 million voters turned out in the Republican primary while 1 million showed up on the Democratic side. It was the highest primary turnout in the state in decades.

The 49% voter turnout smashed the 40% projection made by the Government Accountability Board, even beating the 47.7% turnout of 1972 when George McGovern (D) and Richard Nixon (R) won their respective primaries.

Ohio may be illegally purging thousands of citizens from its registration rolls. That is what a new lawsuit is alleging, according to a recent article published on MSNBC. Ohio is always a key battleground state in presidential election and may once again be the deciding factor in November.

After losing 7 of the last 8 contests (including Democrats Abroad), Clinton's got a big problem.

It's not a problem that she's somehow likely to lose the whole thing; it would still take a minor miracle for Bernie Sanders to pull off the come-from-behind victory this late in the primary season.

The problem is all about damage control, unity, and general election prospects of going home the winner.

She has to campaign to win, but also do it in a manner that doesn't embitter the entire following of Sanders.

2016 is shaping up to be the year of the “anti-establishment” candidate.

Though this author is still confused how a career politician or real estate mogul (two resumes deeply embedded within the establishment) fully deserve the “anti-establishment” label, it is abundantly clear that Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump are not the preferred candidates for their given parties.

In a unanimous 8-0 decision Monday, the Supreme Court upheld the constitutional principle of “one person, one vote,” meaning that Texas will continue to count the total population – rather than just the eligible voting population – in drawing their legislative districts.

For the first time in years, it looks as though California’s primary has a chance to affect the Republican presidential nomination. The primary does not usually offer much sway in the presidential nomination process for two main reasons.

Reason one: the June date. Primaries across the country occur between February and June of the election year, with the majority scheduled in March. This means that by the time California’s June vote rolls around, 88% of the Republican delegates have already gotten behind a candidate.

It's hard to believe, but Donald Trump finally said something I tend to agree wholeheartedly with -- that America is sitting on a financial time bomb waiting to explode.

With the strong possibility of having nominees from the two major parties who are largely unpalatable to a large percentage of the electorate, there is momentum building for serious challenges to the way presidential elections are handled.
