Kasich ran the Huntsman strategy and wound up with less votes, he should drop out.

Dear God, Please let Chris Christie beat Marco Rubio so that Rubio has to endure the humiliation of getting trounced at the debate and at the polls. Amen.

Polls close at 7/8PM ET.... yeah, right. Here's what I know about Merrimack from being a resident for 6 years, and following the discussion in a local Facebook group both leading up to and during the polling today. Let me tell you about Merrimack. Not long ago, we had three polling locations across the town. Running three polling locations costs money, and if there's one thing Merrimack hates, it's spending money on anything. I am not 100% certain on all these details, but this is the consensus gathered from Facebook posts in our local group, some being from the election moderator. I want to start by saying I give a lot of credit to the people who run the elections here, because they get poo poo on no matter what they do. Merrimack used to have three locations. During times of heavy turnout, these locations couldn't handle the traffic (auto or foot). There was only once place in town that can handle the amount of traffic coming through. After complaints about poor setups for polling, the town condensed to the one location in 2012, becoming the single largest polling location in the country. We have since been dethroned by Portland, ME. In 2012, voting was a clusterfuck. There was traffic, and there were lines. People complained, but one location is easier to solve problems at than three. Looking back at 2012 given what happened today, the traffic wasn't that bad, but the voting lines were far worse. The saving grace of the auto traffic was that it made the voting lines short! About a month ago, the traffic plan for today was circulated. Entry was through two streets: McElwain (the main entrance), and Robinson (the entrance few used). I was able to use Robinson to get in at about 9:30 AM in just a few minutes of traffic. Exit from the polls would be by O'Gara, using both lanes. It turns out the exit traffic didn't matter! Merrimack lacks a downtown, so everything is very spread out, mostly along the Daniel Webster Highway (US Rt 3), running parallel to the Everett Turnpike. The entry into the polls (McElwain) is off another important route in the town: Baboosic Lake Road. This road is a major road connecting large swaths of residential to the DW Highway, and importantly, it is one of only a few points to cross over or under the Everett Turnpike. This means you have three sources of traffic funneling into these entrances. Compounding this, the exit traffic was also onto Baboosic Lake Road, with most traffic heading to the DW Highway, meaning you had a stretch from exit to entrance that nearly every vehicle needs to pass through. So, that's the explanation for the typical traffic clusterfuck, a la 2012. You've got a lot of people, and overlapping paths, and all funneling into one route, and one parking lot. This brings us to the source of all this god damned traffic today: The parking lot. What I mentioned earlier about all the traffic flowing through one road segment. That is true of the entire one way stretch past the high school, but with the advantage of being one way. All bets were off at the parking lot. You have everyone coming into the parking lot, and everyone leaving, and there just aren't enough routes through to alleviate the choke point. In the morning, when I voted, the parking lot was nearly empty, and there was one person directing traffic. When I returned with my wife at 7:30, the parking lot was more full, but still had room. There was, at that point, a whole team of people directing traffic down different lanes, etc. It turns out that letting everyone find their own way results in better load balancing than one guy trying to direct traffic. There is lots of talk locally (and it has been going on all day) about things we can do as a town to solve the traffic problem. My understanding is that there isn't money in the town budget to run the 5 or so wards to distribute the load enough to work in the smaller locations spread around the town, so the one location is what we'll have then, too (unless something major changes, which I suppose it could because of today's issues). The other part of that is a lack of manpower to run 5 locations. Merrimack as a town talks a lot about politics, but does not follow through (i.e. lots of complaining about how things are run, but no one every opposing incumbents locally), so not so many people willing to help, but lots willing to complain. No one outside of Merrimack and the surrounding towns will care about this clusterfuck in a week, and no one will care about the inevitable clusterfuck in November.

Scrub-Niggurath posted:Is this the maximum chaos victory because it feels like it is Trump wins in line with his poll numbers? Check Kasich, the least viable candidate going into the rest of the campaign, wins? Check. Cruz beating both Jeb and Rubio? Check. Rubio managing to keep his head above the water and get some delegates, thereby ensuring that he sticks this thing out for at least a little while, further dividing Establishment money? Check. RIP Krispy Kreme though.
