Democratic Super Tuesday results thread (first polls close at 7pm ET)

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Yeah, Sanders is going to get obliterated outside his core demographics.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

In Virginia Sanders is winning some counties in the Shenandoah Valley and other such places.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Patterns in Massachusetts aren't even remotely surprising so far.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Sanders cleans up in Oak Bluffs, where I OD'd on fudge one summer.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

The township map in MA doesn't look awful for Sanders if the trends continue. Winning in Southeastern and Northeastern MA.

What's left of MetroWest isn't going to be great, though. I doubt Hampden will be either.

What was all this talk of methodism in her speech about ? To a French like me, citing repeatedly her faith and religious aphorisms and getting hysteric cheers from the crowd seems really... eerie, Idk.

It's well within the bounds of normality here.

Hill'ry Clinton took an axe
Gave Bernie Sanders forty whacks
And when she saw what she had done
She gave the Donald forty-one

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Damn, Hillary dominated in Springfield, MA.

Springfield is a machine city with a lot of minorities (for Massachusetts) and old and fairly established white communities. It's pretty much perfect for her.

I would not have expected Clinton to win Williamstown, even narrowly.

I have not seen statistics, but based on historical voting trends (large vote for Anderson in 1980, huge swing toward Mondale in '84) I am guessing it has a large Jewish population.

Yes, it does.

I have no idea what kind of person identifies as a Republican and lives in Newton or Brookline.

I mean I'm in Newton and I voted in the Republican primary for tactical reasons but I certainly don't 'identify as a Republican'. I would guess either very wealthy and self-interested or, yeah, young edgelords.

Please do not tell me you voted for the national socialist!

Of course I didn't. I voted for Rubio in hopes of minimizing the scope of the national socialist's victory.

It was the Republican primary.

He's referring to Trump. 'National', when it modifies 'socialist', is a...a pretty important modifier.
