Thus - the various special interest gangs in primaries nominate the later 
winners producing the many leftwing and rightwing extremists in the U.S.A. 
Congress (especially from *safe* one party districts or States).

The primary votes math in all State legislatures is like the above with the 
same type of leftwing/ rightwing results.

Democracy remedy - Abolish primaries, candidates get on general election 
ballots by nominating petitions, proportional representation to elect 
majorities and minorities in all areas (or abolish the U.S.A. Senate).
