Am I correct in assuming that this is the first "closed" primary
and there was no threat of Republican cross-over?

2. Yes, that's true. There will be several more on Super Tuesday.
I believe this was confirmed by Tweety and KO.

7. Arizona is also a closed primary. Either Dem or Rep, or no vote.
No same day registration either.

8. There were Republicans listed in the exit polls
Edwards won them, 34%. Hillary, 24%. Obama, 26%.

11. Yes, in fact I was wondering how many of the Super Tues. states are closed
versus open.

Anyone know?
