have to go to my sent folder to find them and then cut and paste to
another reply. Curiously, it doesn't happen if I have recently uploaded

It's annoying because I have been using Thunderbird for years. Over that
time they have upgraded many times. I don't recall ever noting anything
good in the alleged upgrades. On the contrary, it usually ends up
screwing up something that had been working fine.

No, it won't. Most state primaries are "winner take all". Even
if Haley got 49% of the votes, all of the delegates to the GOP
convention would go for Trump. A handful of states pledge their
delegates in proportion to the number of votes received in the
primary, but not enough to matter.
Or will the Zombie Invasion be complete?
It already is.

I have an American friend who is a Republican but detests Trump.
However, although he will not vote for him next November, he will
not vote for Biden either. I would imagine a lot of decent Republicans
will withhold their vote.

Ah, yes, you don't do a popular vote. But it could still make the
difference in a few close states. If he needs all the Republican votes
in a particular state to beat Biden, but only gets 85% of them, that
could make the difference.
Or will the Zombie Invasion be complete?
It already is.
So you're saying Trump will be the next president.

There must be states where these anti-Trump Republicans can make the difference, assuming Biden doesn't have the same problem.

Trump and Biden are not in contention against each other at this time.
Trump is in contention against Haley (everyone else having dropped out)
and Biden is in contention against Dean Phillips and Marianne Williamson.
For the most part, the contenders who are not Biden or Trump are racking
up single-digit percentages of the vote, so we might as well say it'll
be Biden vs. Trump in November.
It's a primary, not a general election. We're choosing the candidates
who will be on the ballot in the November election. Both Trump and
Biden will win their respective primaries. This will trickle on
for a few more months, then the parties will have their conventions
in August to formalize the nomination of Biden and Trump.
Or will the Zombie Invasion be complete?
It already is.
So you're saying Trump will be the next president.
That won't be decided until November. It's not looking good, though.
Biden's going to have to mount a hell of a campaign to counteract
people's false impressions of him and his accomplishments. Jesus,
Americans are stupid.

And that's functionally equivalent to voting for Trump. He won in

That can easily happen. I'm not voting "for" a candidate, I'm going to
