Is your primary vote influenced by how the race looks when you vote?
I'm curious as to whether most people on DU choose a candidate before any primaries or caucuses begin and then stick with the candidate all the way through (assuming he/she doesn't drop out) OR whether DUers are more likely to change their votes based on how things look at that point. For example, "I'm going to vote for X to keep Y from getting too far ahead", or "I'm going to vote for Z because Q isn't doing so well and at least Z has a shot" -- stuff like that. Is your primary vote independent of or dependent on how well each of the current candidates is doing at the time you vote?
