Just arrived at my neighborhood middle school.  The line to get in is down the street (doors aren't open yet.)  No sign of any Orthodox Jews yet.

No, everybody's pretty quiet, chatting in small groups.  Seen some Hillary t-shirts, some Bernie t-shirts.  Probably about 65 white 20 black 15 Hispanic by my estimate.

Really grumpy lady from the Bernie camp walking down the line repeating a phone number for people to text for some reason.

There's a guy in his twenties here wearing a poorly fitting suit with tie.  GOP caucus is on Tuesday, friend!

She's collecting signatures for a petition to put solar power on the ballot, or something.  I signed it.

Ok I'm in.  A lady walked down the line giving directions on how to find your precinct number.  She's not even a caucus organizer, just a voter frustrated with the hold up.  If you know your precinct number already, you can walk right in.  I now realize that nobody has checked my registration at all...

I found the cafeteria and walked directly into a crowd of people yelling "Bernie?!" at me.  I said no and found the other group.  The lady in charge of the Hillary side is a massive bitch.

An argument broke out between the Hillary leader and the Bernie leader over where to seat the undecideds.

Just sitting here waiting as more people trickle in.  The Bernie side is loudly cheering whenever anybody walks in and into their side.  The Hillary side is... not.

Hillary precinct captains.  The one on the right is the leader who is struggling to hold herself together.

One of the "organizers" (lol) realized that the cafeteria had two precincts jumbled together, so just made both groups split into four (not including the three undecided people at the back of the room).

Okay, so the Hillary side is now divided into two by precinct... the Bernie side is still both precincts jumbled together.

Just a reminder... Nobody has checked my voter registration.

The temporary precinct chair just announced that the permanent precinct chair failed to show up.  He just held a voice vote to make himself the permanent chair.  (Unanimous, though nobody knows who he is.)

When did Hillary Clinton become more electable? Half the country hate her for her last name alone.



Now let's wait for real numbers please! Smiley

I'm uploading a video pretty similar to that right now.

I just had a run in with the Hillary captain after both sides said they wouldn't speak in support of their candidate.  Granted there were no undecideds, but I argued that we could at least try to convince the leaners on both sides.  None of the captains wanted to, and asked me what the point would be.

My precinct (1655) is 7 delegates for Hillary and 8 for Bernie.

1664 is doing their counts next.

I guess there are a few undecideds in the other precinct in this cafeteria, so the chair just held a coin toss to decide which captain will speak first.
