ICYMI: Rumor On Twitter About A “Private Primary” In NV 02 Special Election (no particular order)

@RalstonFlash: Straw poll idea from GOP is newsworthy not because it will happen, but because shows how desperate the Republicans are. #ballotroyale #nvcd2

@RalstonFlash: A potential #nvcd2 frontrunner told me straw poll idea being sold as possible "because Sharron Angle agreed to it." Shockingly, not so.

@elizcrum: MT @RalstonFlash ...Some in GOP trying 2 organize "private primary" in #nvcd2, get all candidates 2 agree to abide by results / #herdingcats

@elizcrum: RT @MelissaTweets: And the chances of that working are oh, slim and none? / Right. And Slim is vacationing in Utopia. #nvcd2 #nv02

@elizcrum: GOP source says the rumor (that the idea to have a "private primary" in #nv02 is backed by county chairs, some on the exec board) is false.

@elizcrum: Different GOP source says "the person spreading the rumor is the same person who came up with the hare-brained idea." #herdingrabbits

@elizcrum: Clarification: Yes, someone IS floating the idea of a "private primary" in #nv02. Same person saying exec board, county chairs support idea.

@elizcrum: Naturally the rumor has spread, so now multiple people on the GOP central committee are saying "everyone wants" a private GOP primary.

@elizcrum: Bottom line, Tweeps, w/out party support, any "private primary" will be little more than a straw poll + a petition of endorsement. #bigdeal

@elizcrum: .@NVLegTroll 5 sources confirm discussions among central committee members. 0 sources confirm claim of cty, state party support. #nv02

@RalstonFlash:@HotlineJess Think your instincts correct. One GOP strategist called it "goofy," which is understatement. Idea is to open up to all GOP!

@RalstonFlash: House special should not be "left in the hands of a small group of party insiders." GOP hopeful Kirk Lippold supports @rossjmiller decision.
