April 3, 2012--Voters arrive at
the Precinct 25 polling place in Washington, DC. While attention
has focused on the Wisconsin primary, and to a lesser extent the
Maryland primary, there is also a presidential preference primary (and
council primary) election in the District of Columbia. DC
Republicans will send 19 delegates to the Republican National
Convention. Four candidates are on the ballot for Republicans:
Newt Gingrich, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney and Jon Huntsman. Democrats
can choose between Barack Obama and Uncommitted; Jill Stein is the only
name on the Statehood Greens' ballot.
