I'm impressed how Rubio is managing to be jusssst high enough in the vote to get a delegate.

Really that is all there is to watch for, keep him down boys so another delegate goes to Trump!

Donald Trump has won a primary.

Pat Buchanan won a primary too, I guess. So did Steve Forbes.

JEB! is now 0.1% behind cruz, a mere 200 votes with 37% of the precincts left to count (including Salem)

Bernie won women 53-47esh, but was buoyed by his performance in the 18-34 group where he won it like 90-10.

Last year in South Carolina it was just Mitt, Newt, Rick and Ron.

This year we have Donald, John, Ted, Jeb, Marco, Carly and Ben. And I guess Jim "No Car Tax" Gilmore.

REPUBLICAN PROCESS

23 National Convention delegates are to be bound proportionally to presidential contenders based on the primary vote statewide [RSA 659:93].

A 10% threshold is required in order for a presidential contender to be allocated National Convention delegates.

Allocate delegates based on the 23 × candidate's vote ÷ total statewide vote. Round to the nearest whole number.

Any delegate positions that remain open are awarded to the candidate with the highest statewide vote total.
im pretty sure trump gets 8 delegates for his % then the 3 extra for people who voted for candidates below the 10% threshold, kasich gets 4, cruz and bush 3, and rubio 2

jeb's only at like 2.56/23 of the total vote but i doubt he'll get rounded down

rubio continues to be 800something voters above 10% of the electorate so he probably will not get cut off

My recollection of Nevada is that basically the republican party is old white people + rich white people and the democratic party is primarily hispanic and centered in and around las vegas and reno.

Not at the same rate, and they flatlined during the Bush years (i.e., the post-dotcom years). There was a spike when Obama was first elected but not much since then.

I don't disagree that the 90s were a Time of Plenty, man. I grew up during the 90s, despite my parents being a trucker and a waitress, they were pretty good times all around. Where I disagree is the thought that we (and especially my generation) aren't being hosed over today, especially post-2008-crash. I contend that this is the real reason why Trump/Bernie is having such enormous support today, not wishy-washy social issues nonsense.

I'm pretty neutral between the Bern and Hillary but I don't really see the need by Bern supporters to poo poo on the only two presidents that somewhat tried to hold the line against a plutocracy. Yeah, okay, they weren't Karl Marx and things could have been improved. But given the context of a divided government in a system with lots of checks and balances, making GBS threads on them just gives even more ammo to the Republicans for no real reason.

If there was one reason I would vote against the Bern it would be if he disowns the limited attempts at progressivism that came at great cost to the last two democratic presidents.
