Re: District vs Regional

Last season, about 29% of regional-only teams attended 2 regionals. Anyway, the argument you just cited is circular logic: Teams that only go to one regional are more likely to be unable to attend CMP if they qualify(I would think). Those teams don't go, and the slots are filled by teams who can go, many of which go to multiple regionals.
