  1. People that haven’t been paying attention to primaries before getting introduced to this chaos is very funny to me. Grab a beer and read twitter.

    Van Jones (I think it was him) made a good point before and said that if the results come late, newspapers will already have printed, and then with the SOTU and impeachment in the coming days, the winner may never get a proper headline

  8. This ... is not what I expected. I really thought we’d see record turnout. Everything I was hearing from Bernie and Warren’s field organizers had me thinking we were going to see a much bigger activation of voters. Hmm.
     
  9. HEY

    Also, remember how long it took California to get their results fully in? And Cali REALLY matters this year. That’ll be fun

    I'm skeptical of taking the "on pace for 2016" line too literally -- that whole statement is probably nothing more than frenzied damage control.
     
  15. Damage control would say “record turnout!!” taking time, not ... actually it’s a flat/low turnout night.

    Campaigns being called into a meeting.

    My guess: a lot of first alignment numbers were erased/not saved by precinct runners who didn’t realize the new rules.

  22. I’ve heard a lot also never even attempted the app, all went with paper instead, and it’s taking longer to calculate.

    How does Canada get its elections done in like two months but we can't even get a fucking app to work properly for one night?
     
  24.  


  25. Yap. That confirms some of what I’ve heard. A lot of places never even tried the app and just went paper the whole way.
