WHERE CAN I WATCH THIS? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JCTY6MxJ4I LOGISTICS Venue: Saint Anselm College's Sullivan Arena in Manchester, NH Sponsors: ABC News, Apple News Moderators: George Stephanopoulos, David Muir, and Linsey Davis CANDIDATES Bernard "Bernie" Sanders  Quote: "Let justice roll on like a river; righteousness, like a never-failing stream." Joseph Robinette "Joe" Biden, Jr.  Quote: “CornPop was a bad dude and he ran a bunch of bad boys." Elizabeth Ann Warren  Quote: "Dementors or big bank CEOs, I'm ready to take 'em on — let's do this!" Peter Paul Montgomery "Pete" Buttigieg  Quote: “It’s an embarrassing thing to admit, the people who wrote the Constitution did not understand that slavery was a bad thing." Amy Jean Klobuchar  Quote: "I would prefer a public option that would be a competitive option that would allow people to buy into a Federal Employee Health Benefits Program, which is a series of private plans." Andrew Yang  Quote: "You know, it's been a point of confusion because I don't look much like a white nationalist." Thomas Fahr "Tom" Steyer  Quote: "I just want to say hi, Joe Biden, yeah, good. OK." WHY IT MATTERS Mayor Pete received a huge bump after outperforming expectations in the Iowa caucus, which catastrophically mismanaged by the Iowa Democratic Party, leading to the results still being distrusted. Pete needs to defend his premature victory announcement and why the winner should be decided by an arcane caucus metric instead of who received the most votes. Bernie needs to counter with his own narrative about why he won. Biden needs to explain why he performed so poorly and how he can come back. All of the other candidates are pissed at Pete, so hopefully it will be a bloodbath.

Flavius Aetass posted:Yeah they reopen it a few days from each debate and close it a few days afterward. I'd rather us all continue that one than have separate threads for the same thing. Mods can delete this then, although I still like the idea of the thread having an OP with updated info

juche avocado posted:it is true that libs on twitter can sometimes be almost correct even if they're stupidly so Sounds like something to bring up in the Succ zone because this thread is for having fun watching the debate together and laughing at the fact that Pete Buttigieg is a rodent of the genus Rattus

Acelerion posted:They cant just ask Bernie why he declared victory cause theyll get hit with the "because I got more votes dummy" response. Im super excited to see how how hosed up the question framing is going to be to specifically avoid this. Something like "why aren't you using the metric that actually determines delegates when you declare victory?"
