Washington GOP caucus on Saturday, March 3rd

The caucuses start at 10am PT / 1pm ET and run for no more than two hours.  However, various news sources suggest that the Washington GOP will not release results until 5pm PT / 8pm ET.  Not clear if that means they'll dump 100% of the results all at once.  Presumably, there'll be a million leaks of results on Twitter well before that.

CNN and AP results:

The GOP LD leader for my area returned my call by apologizing for the delay, saying he was having phone trouble and was having difficulties getting a hold of the key for the caucus site.  It was 8 PM on the night before the caucus.  If this is at all representative, I expect great things.

Did the Democrats also have problems with their caucuses or is this incompetence only limited to the GOP ?

Only the GOP.

Even if they had, Obama's landslide didn't leave any room for complaints.

Whatever happens, I'm sure a lot of people on the Internet will be convinced that another election was stolen from Dr. Paul.

I'm heading out to caucus in about a half hour. Does anyone know if CNN is covering the caucus or anything?

CNN's coverage, as far as I read, is supposed to go from 8pm-9pm Eastern.

Will anyone be getting the results from this before CNN and all? (like what we did in Nevada on twitter)

I had a dream that Newt Gingrich won, complete with a legislative district map.

Do your political dreams tend to come true? In other words, should I start buying Gingrich stock on Intrade at this point? Wink

The WA GOP's result map says 0/195 reporting... 195 of what? I can't think of a logical way they get to that number for reporting data.

Apparently someone sent out a robocall saying the caucuses were cancelled. No idea who it is/who was targeted.

I'm kind of tempted to go just because it's probably the only chance to see my precinct's result. But I wouldn't want to vote, just watch! Tongue

Before the WA-GOP "adjusts" the result, you mean?

Of course. Part of the adjustment is making detailed results unavailable. Sad

So we're already out-shenaniganing the other caucuses. Before voting even starts. Take that, Nevada!
