Conundrum: Primary Colors
Tuesday, October 16th, 2007You may want to use a map for this one…
Imagine the 2008 Republican primaries are over, and only four candidates won any states. (DC, which is not a state, went to Ron Paul.)
1. Mitt Romney won more states than any other candidate.
2. Rudy Giuliani’s states included Massachusetts and Washington.
3. John McCain won all of the states beginning with one particular letter, and only those states.
4. Fred Thompson’s states included New Mexico.
5. Strangely enough, no two bordering states went for the same candidate. (Four Corners does not count as a border.)
Who won in Michigan? How do you know?
