2004 GOP Governor IRV Projections

by Mark E. Towner

After looking at the New State Delegate list for 2004, and a county by county, legislative by legislative analysis here is my projections and logic for the upcoming IRV Utah GOP Governor Nomination race.

Eliminated first round:Gary Benson2nd choice go to Karras
Eliminated 2nd round:Parley Hellewell 2nd choice go to Stephens
Eliminated 3rd round:James Hansen 2nd choice go to Stephens
Eliminated 4th round:Gary Herbert 2nd choice Stephens/Lampropolis
Eliminated 5th round:Nolan Karras 2nd choice go to Stephens
Eliminated 6th round:Walker/Huntsman 2nd choice goes to each other
Primary 7th round:Stephens/Lampropoulos
Primary 8th round:Huntsman/Walker

The convention IRV will be (Huntsman or Walker) with 56% and (Stephens or Lampropolis) with 44%

If Walker can survive to a Primary, she win’s the Primary and cake-walks the General election with 63%

Any other GOP Nominee will have a tough primary, then a really tough and expensive General Election. However whoever ultimately becomes the GOP Nominee will win the General election 53% to 45%, unless Iraq or the economy implodes and this drags down the GOP candidate from Bush on down the ticket.
