translate in his favor.

CLOSER AND HE WENT ALL OVER THE STATE SAYING "LOOK I'M GOING TO WIN." SAME
POLL, I'VE GONE AHEAD.))
Primaries traditionally bring low voter turnouts.
And a low turnout in June's primary would seem to benefit Miller.
The two potential nominees are rarely seen at the same event, leaving open
the question, "will there ever be a debate?"
((MILLER: CALL HIM UP AND ASK HIM. HE'S THE MAN THAT CAN SAY YES OR NO. I'VE
SAID LET'S HAVE A SERIES OF FOUR DEBATES.))
((WARNER: I OFFERED JIM A DEBATE AND I SIGNED UP FOR IT. I'VE DEBATED EVERY

While the June 11th vote determines the GOP nominee, the decision won't just
be up to republicans.
