But why is dancing important to Wyoming. Slate explains via a very old article from the NY Times:
The chief factor in this pre-election gayety is that whenever there is to be a speaking by the aspirants to office it is always the custom to have a dance that same night. Hundreds of people turn out to hear the spellbinders, not because they love the oratory so much as that they are keenly bent on the terpsichorean festivities that come after the shades of night have fallen.
BY the way, unless Michigan attempts a caucus, which is in its political culture, there are no more caucuses left on the schedule.
Also, some days, I think we should go back to the good old days when votes were public and candidates offered voters food and drink for its vote. Literally, alcohol and tasty-treats.
