Yeah but ratfuck discussion has taken place in the Succ Zone historically, plus when obvious ratfucks like Iowa happen it's so natural to want to talk about them that they don't need their own thread

Basically there's only two possible outcomes
1. Bernie ratfucked, Pete wins
2. Bernie ratfucked, wins anyway

Whether or not that's true the only other polling it did was to see how much Brazilians loved Bolsonaro by dredging social media, so if even the most fash-friendly polls are still only giving Butt a tie for NH the numbers clearly aren't real. Doesn't discount other fuckery though. We should be prepared for this to finish very close. Even if Bernie wins Pete's close second will be trumpeted by media as the true victory of the night. Klob really needs to drag that fucker to hell or we're gonna be dealing with him for a while.

Results technically start coming in at 7 but the last polls close and 8 and news organizations don't release exit polls or declare a winner until then. So 7 is like the pregame show

One thing I would like everyone to know is that it would be much, much harder to ratfuck Bernie tonight than it was in Iowa, both because primaries are straight votes instead of an arcane multi-round system, and because this primary is a state election and loving with it is actually illegal, unlike in caucuses

I'm not saying it's impossible, but mainly fear of going to jail. In Iowa, the party could have just baldly declared that all delegates went to Pete and the only consequence would have been loss of trust in them, which happened regardless

Straightforward. This is just a regular election where you write down your vote on a ballot, no herding around in gymnasiums or having to do math

fairly straightforward. unlike the backwards tinpot bullshit-tatorship of IA or another caucus state, NH uses paper ballots and is a straight-up primary

when you vote you place the ballot in the scanner so it's read immediately. The paper is there for backup

I think this is somewhat likely tbh

10% of the vote comes in, they say they need to do "quality control" again, the rat declares victory

It's fun to imagine but I would bet money against it. What will probably actually happen is Bernie will win comfortably, well know it tonight, and everybody will get a break after the Iowa stress.
