Washington’s Caucus and Delegate Selection Process Explained

[surf]

Wow, and yet such low voter turnout (about 1/10th of Iowa)...

i've always kind of figured it this way: my precinct has around 500 voters and being a pco i'll be representing around 125 of them and my 3 other delegates will also. if we move on it'll be a greater number of votes. one thing to be clear on is that it is unlikely that we'll have an accurate reading on who won following the 3/3 caucuses. assuming we do well, it's less likely that a "winner" will be declared and highly likely that we'll face fights going forward.

From my experience many of the precincts are completely empty on Caucus day, we can leverage our numbers big time by making sure we target precinct by precinct.

Can you explain this? Is that to mean that they won't broadcast results as they come in as they do for seemingly every state that votes? Iowa had a non-binding straw vote, but even that was reported timely. (Or do you consider that an inaccurate reading because the delegates aren;t pledged by the caucus vote?)

On a side note, does anyone have the address and phone number to a grassroots HQ in Washington? I live too far away to volunteer in person, but as I learned in Iowa and NH Grassroots offices often need supplies, and I would like to send them what they need.
