Tomorrow, TN GOP Chairman Chris Devaney is meeting with the Rhea County and now Roane County Republicans. He is discussing TN’s Open Primaries. No one cared when the campaigns of Republican Gubernatorial Candidates Ron Ramsey & Zach Wamp were raising the same issue two years ago.

The TN Republican State Executive Committee took up the issue and decided against proceeding with a closed primary.

With an open primary a voter can vote Democrat one primary election. The next election in the Republican primary. In a closed primary you declare your party and you must vote in that primary, solely.

What is funny about these emails. Is that Flo Charles the Roane County Republican email list, “all Roane County TRUE Republicans” if they are not true republicans why is she communicating with them. Also, who performs the true test?

The email chain is below.
