5. "The leading candidate from each party appears to get the votes from the
other candidates in their party."

Not so. Someone can vote Busby or Bilbray in the election and then not vote in the primary for the Nov. race. The races are independent. Unless for some reason the GOP primary is bringing people to the polls that wouldn't turn out for the special election..... But of course they could just as easily claim foul with the Dem. primary for governor.
