[EL] question from canada

Sun Dec 4 18:48:00 PST 2011

A website called "Green Papers" has extensive information on Democratic and
Republican presidential primaries.  http://www.thegreenpapers.com/P12/  It
takes some effort to navigate.

In the cases where the primaries are non-binding - held as "beauty
contests", the delegates pledged to different candidates are selected
through the party caucuses.

Subject: [EL] question from canada

 I can see on the election calendar that democratic presidential primaries
are scheduled in different states. Hence my question, from Canada: will
there be or not democratic presidential primaries? How come some primaries
are not binding? I can’t seem to find answers in the usual text books or
websites...
 Thanks
 Elisabeth
