Small glimmer of exit polls:

Rick Klein ‏@rickklein
late deciders - nearly half of GOP voters today picked candidate in last few days, per preliminary #nhprimary exit polls

Beaten... is that literally the only thing we have right now?

Bicameral, federal, with compulsory voting and single member districts all drag it down. New Zealand's constitution is much better, one of the best outside the Scandinavian countries.

New Zealand's does strike me as better but I have to admit I'm a little fond of compulsory voting.

You'd just hit circuitry so you'd be liable to electrocute yourself.

He doesn't need to get 50% to win.

That explains a lot about the Kasich results we've been seeing.

Agree, I quite like it as long as you make election day a public holiday.

According to NBC's preliminary exit poll, the GOP electorate this year is 42% Indy, and the Democratic electorate is 39% Indy.

In 2008, GOP was 37% Indy and Dem was 44% Indy.

Donald Trump: he'll shoot someone on 5th Avenue, then help that person up.

I think people expected a bunch of left independents to vote Trump as they thought he was a beatable GE candidate, so bad?

 

[Y2Kev]

Cant tell if this is good or bad for Trump

I don't know if independents or republicans are more likely to be insane.

 

[Veritigo_X]

Cant tell if this is good or bad for Trump

If I've learned anything this primary, assume it's a good thing for Trump.

 

[Black Republican]

Rubio will be 2nd. I believe!

 

[Holmes]

Not the best news for Sanders, probably a wash between Trump and Kasich.

I think when we get (preliminary) age distribution, we can get a better grasp on where things are so far.

Get out

NEW: 2/3 of New Hampshire GOP voters favor temporarily banning Muslims who are not US citizens from entry, per preliminary exit poll results

Pretty similar figures compared to 2008, unless the numbers shift a good bit by 8pm.

I think choosing not to participate is a legitimate form of expression. I could be persuaded in favour of compulsory vote, but I would want there to be clear options to allow voters to differentiate between whether they are not voting for a candidate because they don't have a strong preference between any of the remaining candidates, because they feel insufficiently informed, or because they do not approve of the system - I.e., an option each for "No Preference", "Don't Know" and "Conscious Objection". Otherwise, you're forcing people to express a choice they may not actually prefer or to spoil a ballot which may not be an accurate representation of their choice.

 

[NeoXChaos]

Trump better pull this off.

 

[Y2Kev]

Ugggghhhhhh

YAAAAS TRUMP

 

[Veritigo_X]

Ugggghhhhhh

Trump's got this then. No question.

 

[PBY]

Ugggghhhhhh

LOL WHAT

Also how is that the first polling we're seeing. Also it makes me feel shitty again about Trump, but Ima ride this wave til the end.

Don't get too excited.

Why is this uggggghhhh? Isn't this a good sign that Trump will be our piñata in the GE?

You don't actually have to take a ballot, you can simply have your name checked off the roll and leave immediately.

feel like this is how the dudes in the big short must have felt

i suppose but it's still depressing to know 2/3 of those polled believe that.

I know, I'm Australian by birthplace - I was more noting how there are multiple reasons why people would not vote for a candidate and there is less way to separate those reasons when voting is compulsory.

 

[Cesare Borgia]

It's good news for Kasich.

 

[Y2Kev]

It's bad news for Kay hagan

Didn't know that! We never see you in AusPoli by that's probably because it's been boring AF for ages.

 

[Gruco]

Great news

Spoiler

for John McCain?

 

[Veritigo_X]

C'mon, gimme another hit. That was such a tease.

CNN says 22% of Dems decided their vote in the last days, against 46% of GOPs.

65% of GOPs influenced by the debate (bye Rubio?)

I haven't been back to Australia for a very long time and don't follow it so closely politically. Because of my parentage and where I've mostly lived for the last decade, I consider myself mostly European - with some exceptions. Still shed a tear when Rusty retired.

Makes sense, with more people on the GOP side.

 

[OrangeGrayBlue]

I actually think it's more depressing when I see figures saying that like 12% of democrats support a ban on muslims too. Like, how the hell are these people democrats?

My dad was a Neo-Nazi, but working class. He voted Democrat.
