Are they registered as Democrats? My biggest fear for Sanders is a good number of people who would support him won’t be able to vote in the primary because they aren’t registered (or if they are registered didn’t check the Democratic Party box).

Some states let you declare or change your registration at the door.

I don’t get the arguments that she’s Hilary-like. She’s an almost painfully earnest dork. She tried to knife Sanders but fumbled it badly because she’s such a dope. She’s bad, but stuff like the credit card benefit have powerful coupon-clipping mom energy.

When people believe in something, they take it as an attack on them to be proven wrong or even disagreed with. The number of secular and even liberal Jews who turn into race scientists and embrace genocide whenever the occupation comes up really shows how vulnerable to that tendency we all are.

I don’t know how to counter it.

I echo what others said about this poll probably being really bad for Mayo Pete. It’s only a matter of time before his voters consolidate behind Biden, and I wouldn’t be surprised if that swing had already begun.

Nothing would make me happier, but no other polls have suggested this.

Barring that I feel like I'm talking to a wizard describing the dark arts, that sounds like the exact scenario I was afraid of: every single college student could show up to vote, but if Bernie was already set to win all the delegates in those precincts it wouldn't change anything :derp: I suppose the upside is that this would probably hit Warren a lot worse, and if Bernie support had any particular precincts shoot up in 2016 that would be factored in.

College students probably wouldn’t show up anyway, as you can only go to the caucus location at which you’re registered. They’d all be turned away unless they drove back to their family homes.

there was actually at least one day-of change though, because the school has a gas leak and won't allow the caucus

I believe all the satellite caucus results get merged together and turned into one precinct. So Biden and the Klob placing well at one in Florida will be drowned out by the other locations who are attended by rational people.

Unless there are 10 people each in Glasgow and Paris and 100 in Florida. There are also sites in New York and Stanford and other places that will hopefully outnumber them.

I'll be surprised if the youth turn out this election at all. I've the past few years I've added a lot of the 18-25 year olds to social media that I've worked with after I moved to the next job)hotel management) and I don't recall once over the past year that any of them have made a remark about politics nothing for mueller, nothing for Impeachment. You can make the argument that people don't want to see it on social media, but I see it all the time, just not from that age group.

I don’t care about those things either because they don’t matter. The youth care about climate change and healthcare and real wages. I care about those things too.

I wonder if this whole mess will encourage other states to try and start earlier caucuses to steal Iowa's fire.

Given the skewed demographics of Iowa and its absurd caucus system it's time we had another state take the mantle of "first primary". Iowa should not be this important.

National ranked-choice voting by mail. Everyone gets between February and May to mail their ballots.

I admit I am not familiar with her before the last year or so but she sure as hell isn't alt right. (although to be fair, I am a fan of count dankula who is also considered such and has similar views). I have been told that her older videos are not exactly progressive, but its obvious that her opinions and platform have changed since then. I am cool with people changing and growing.

It is entryism. She is married to another nazi and both of them are Canadian and can’t vote in US elections. She’s trying to peel twitter teens away from the left by lovebombing them with something they like.

Damnit, I have to respond to this. You hit the nail on the head - but I do want to say IT USED TO WORK. We live in a different world though now, and I am probably too clueless and naive to see the virtue signaling or whatever they are doing. Its so easy for someone to jump on the internet and have 1000's of people reinforce their beliefs. When I was growing up, you really could talk people out of that poo poo though... they did it because they were alone, had no self esteem, no friends. Those groups fed on it. Just talking to someone and including them, making them feel like a human being was enough and pretty quickly they would change their own minds. That probably doesn't happen on the internet.

With her, it’s 100% an act to lure people mad about Bernie’s treatment to listen to her pitch about how (((they))) are the ones responsible for the rigged system and boy democracy doesn’t work but hey, have you ever heard about this cool guy—the Bernie of his day in many ways—who came up with an alternative to democracy that really works?

It’s an easy trick to pull on people who are feeling alienated and can be talked out of it.
