I forgot the other important takeaway, which is gently caress any state that turns out a third of its votes for an ambulatory slimeball.

Iowa isn't a winner-take-all state in terms of total delegates right? I don't understand caucuses.

i think the democratic one is still a traditional caucus where each precinct allocates delegates proportionally, after a redistribution phase with everybody in groups chanting at each other, and then THOSE delegates go do ANOTHER caucus where THEY join up in groups and choose ANOTHER group of delegates, and THOSE delegates actually VOTE at the convention

i think

the republicans have done their best to neuter the caucus system, the second stage is still gonna happen but all the delegates chosen there will basically be handed their choice of nominee in an envelope. each candidate gets a proportional number of delegates: if you got 10% of the vote you get 3 of the 30 delegates. there's some silly rounding rules, of course

I love voting! I love people gathered up in community centers and gymnasiums and living rooms and caucus officials explaining rules and people handing in their ballots. I love it, I love the whole process!

I love people giving a poo poo about civic values!

Look at Rubio slowly crawling his way up. I wonder how many voters will abandon the guys below him after this and throw their "not Cruz or Trump" hopes onto him?

That is how I have been assuming things will go.

With roughly 50% done it's:
51,2% Hillary to 48,3% Bernie is very close.

Poor O'Malley with 0,5%


I don't see it move very much either way on the Democratic side. Very close

Seems pretty clear Rubio will be the consensus candidate and Cruz is going to get shouldered out of the race while everyone else drops out

Enjoy your Democratic President, America

Old silly turn of phrase that isn't offensive or even necessarily gendered. See also "parental units".
