"This Tuesday's election contest in Arizona could determine whether anyone enters July's Republican National Convention with the delegate majority needed to clinch the the nomination.
Unfortunately, at least 40,000 Arizona Republicans wasted their votes.
As of last Wednesday afternoon, at least a quarter million registered Republicans had already voted in Arizona, taking advantage of the state's 26-day early voting period.
Based on the timeline, this means those 250,000 Arizona Republicans all voted without knowing Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., would no longer be a candidate by election day.
A poll taken last week suggests that 16 percent of Arizona early voters had already cast ballots for Rubio.
Assuming this is accurate, it means early voting disenfranchisement has struck again.
Arizona's early voting law has set up the state's democratic process in a way that lures 40,000 primary voters into picking a candidate who isn't on the ballot.
And they cannot get their votes back..."
