Are caucuses still going on over there? I mean it's already past 1:30pm over there.

 

[JJ2]

wow. a lot of hype about Ron going to win. I really do hope so.

Hype? Where?

 

[RabbitMan]

The caucuses should all be done unless it was huge and disorganized. Results being tallied at separate locations and revealed at 5pm PST.

Hey, what the fuck is this?

thevaguequeen: These contents on every Thurs co princnt table made a maybe Paul supporter decide no. #wacaucus @KIRO7Seattle http://t.co/mWIYn4hP

Thats from the campaign, trying to ask the supporters to take tallies of the vote and to not split the votes for the delegates. But why was it on the tables is anyone's guess.

 

[PolicyReader]

this is true. As the day goes, people happily pass on the good news and retweet it multiple times I haven't seen a spread sheet going for results, or even that they are sufficiently announced to put one together and just the FACT that they are being counted separately, after Maine, and after their breaking rules on appointing the PCOs, makes me concerned.

Most 'stable' results I've seen are from Nate Silver and that's essentially "it's still too close to call" which is at this stage something I will take it certainly beats the PPP focus some cats promoted yesterday etc

LOL I don't see this as anything that harmful. Remember that the supporters of most other candidates only want to have their vote counted and leave, whereas RP supporters at a precinct are more likely to want to be involved deeper in the process.

 

[Lord Xar]

So, we are gonna have to deal with all these ballots going to a "central location" to be counted by party insiders?

This shit never ends.

Thank god they have this info. This is how you win delegates. SLATES and vote smart. DO NOT NOMINATE MORE PEOPLE THAN SLOTS.

Screw the straw vote. We are picking up mega delegates. Now they just have to show up at the next level.

@ndinks There were zero Santorum supporters in my precinct, and Paul outnumbered Romney both in delegates & straw poll. #WAcaucus

Awesome information to handout. We don't want 7 RP delegates running when there is only 5 slots TOTAL. Why? Because then you have 5 votes to give to 7 people...splits the vote for delegates. And allows Santorum and Romney people to get ahead of ours. MAXIMIZE delegates. If we maximize delegates on the small scale, we maximize to the national convention (if we have majorities going into the state convention...we could have a unanimous slate to the national convention).

When you scroll over the counties on their map they are comparing it to the '08 Primary even though this is a caucus (caucus in '08 too),, but thats good for us because we got pummeled in the primary, it will show a phenomenal surge from last primary

The 2008 results are....well, I don't know. It looks like they are going off the primary results instead of the caucus results which did not matter in 2008. Comparing to 2008 results isn't really possible since the election this year is much different.
