Will they all me assigned to second place finishers or would they be divided among all participants proportionately to what they won per race? Imagine in the worst case scenario that the SC drags its ass only to throw him out in June after all of the primaries are done. That would be a disaster because you would probably have people drooping out of the race early. They should be hearing the case now. |

I guess it would be similar to what happens when a candidate dies or withdraws during an election year (not that I know what happens then)
