27. Yeah, this is why they had to even further rig the process...
Not that Jackson could have won the general, but this shows that even as late as 1988 the process of fixing elections to make sure that only reliable corporatist non-entities win still had kinks.

But it's never been more rigged than today, eh?

Used to be if you came in fourth in Iowa, you were called dark horse and had a shot to win some states.

Now if you come in second, everyone howls: Why are you still in it? Hurry up and get out for unity!!!
