The nomination or designation of candidates for public office
by direct popular vote rather than through the action of a
convention or body of elected nominating representatives or
delegates. The term is applied both to the nomination of
candidates without any nominating convention, and, loosely,
to the nomination effected, as in the case of candidates for
president or senator of the United States, by the election of
nominating representatives pledged or instructed to vote for
certain candidates dssignated by popular vote.
