33. Are you in a position of power to affect the date of elections?
No? Neither am I.

So I'm sad to say what you think about having another election or not having an election means diddly-squat.

I'm sure if we really felt it was issue number one (over Iraq, the economy, healthcare, etc.), we could lobby our legislators real hard about it, but the fact remains most ordinary Democrats don't give a hoot one way or another as to the exact day of a primary. All they know is when the polls open, they go and vote. And that's what everyone did in the situation, regardless of what state party official did what.
