get some go again
there should probably be a thread for polls with the opening post giving information about the various pollsters and their reliability.
 
I'm skeptical of Trump's alleged strategy being primarily rallies - perhaps I'm mis-remembering, but didn't he get kind of burnt out on his rallies for a while, the same way he just kind of got bored of the debates?

He's got a little bit of Sleepy Time Carson in him, Hillary might be able to just beat him out with attrition.

I think someone needs to send HA a straightjacket.

Hillary Clinton is the ENRON of American politics. Bernie Sanders is GOOGLE. Superdelegates must invest wisely. FBI interviews big liability


I find that tweet incredibly ironic given just how much Google knows about you and then Bernie snooping into Hillary's data.

Google is also infamous by dodging taxes in the US by using the 'Dutch Sandwich' (some sort of double Irish 2.0). Wasn't Bernie against that when talking about the Panama papers?

Wait there is a Democratic primary in Nebraska today? I thought it was just the GOP

Only in West Virginia for Dems sorta, it looks like there were two Republican primaries in West Virginia.

So why is MSNBC showing me Nebraska Democratic Primary results coming in? Are they repeating old data? Are they just making up numbers?

There is a primary in Nebraska for both parties, but the Democratic one is non-binding. No delegates will be awarded. It's weird then that they even held a caucus in the first place.

Clinton winning it (decisively so far) might bode well for South Dakota.

Nebraska has a Dem voting primary but only the caucus was binding. However, a Nebraska superdelegate said they would vote for whoever won the Dem vote today.


Also as I stated above, due to the non-parity of the primaries being open and closed, it's possible to recieve a ballot in Nebraska today where you can vote FOR Trump and AGAINST Hillary, but not not the other way around. You have to be registered as Republican to vote against Trump but for Hillary.

And our turnout here is generally low.

It's gonna be weird. But basically if Omahans stayed registered Democrat, Omaha can't counter-vote Trump at all, so obviously he's gonna win all the rural votes.

Benchmark still expects 12 to 14.
Honestly not that bad considering.

I was honestly expecting a blowout.

so 12 to 14 points? LOL..this race is over. I mean, it already was. But anything less than blowouts should be embarrassing for Bernie at this point. At 14 points he'd net what? 9 delegates?

"It's an uphill struggle," Sanders said Tuesday in Stockton, California. "We have a chance to end up with a majority of the pledged delegates. And if we do that, I think you are looking at the Democratic nominee for president."

Still, Sanders is mathematically prevented from winning the nomination based on pledged delegates alone.

It's like the guy who blew off every exam during the semester and keeps saying it's cool bro I'll just make a 99.7% on the final exam no fucking problem.

edit: I mean 103%, hope the professor gives bonus points

12-14% is much better than I expected. Another state under 66%!

Where's that 538 margin list for Sanders to win... didn't it have him winning by 40% to be on target?

The @dccc spent over $400k trying to throw #NE02 R primary to weaker Chip Maxwell, but looks like Gen. Don "Bits" Bacon will easily win.

He missed the target for Guam. Looks like he will miss it today also.

See this, pundits??? THIS is why people are still voting for Bernie.

Not because they're sending a message. Not because they give a shit about the Democratic platform (who the fuck ever does???)

They're still showing up to his rallies and paying their rents late to donate to him because he is hoodwinking them into thinking that he still still has a chance to not only catch up to Hillary, but pass her in pledged delegates. He's preying on ignorance at this point.

Charlatan Sanders. Sad!

Really impressed with Benchmark this primary. Considering all the variables, they did awesome tonight.

Glad they found paying work :)
